I finally finished the second sock to my first pair of socks. The actual knitting part was pretty easy after I learned how to start the toe (these are toe-up socks) and turn the heel.
The cuffs were a pain in the ass because I had to learn how to do an elastic bind off because the usual bind off I did made the sock opening too small. I had intended these to be ankle-length socks because I don’t like wearing super-long socks all the time. Unfortunately, I misjudged how long the cuff I knitted was and by the time I bound off and tried on the sock, it was shorter than I thought. Still wearable, but next pair of ankle socks I make will be longer.
GA! OMG.
I need to get back into knitting…
These socks are so damn CUTE.
