So, I finished my first sock! And I'm about halfway through the second. It may not look that way, but since I am somewhat inexperienced with socks, the toe and heel are the hardest part for me - I expect smooth sailing from here on out!

You may be wondering, "Why are the heels different colors even though the stripe pattern is the same?" The reason is that my feet are half-a-size different. And now I can make socks that fit each one! Amazing!

This shows all the stitch markers and lifelines in the first sock.





I made these with Cascade 220 - a somewhat heavier weight than is usually used for socks. They will be nice and toasty for the winter. My feet tend to get cold...

Also, I signed up for the Magic Loop workshop at Woolcott. The class will be in about three weeks. It teaches you how to do two socks at a time on one pair of circular needles. (I made these kneesocks on doublepoints.) Fabulous! I can't wait!
