And on to Socks....

I finally have read and re-read, and watched videos until I decided the time was now to cast on that first pair of socks.  Well, it has only taken me 2 days and 10 times of ripping out to finally get the first round of ribbing completed!  I had a hell of a time working with the two needles...I feel so uncoordinated.

It's no where near perfect, but correct enough to be able to press on.  I sure hope it gets easier, my poor kitties are hearing too many bad words!



You'll notice I gave up trying to match the coloring of the yarn between the two socks.

  1. Yea!!! Progress!!! It will get easier, and I'm totally at peace over not having matching socks.

  2. Glad you got them cast on. Did you figure out why you were having problems? I have to have the book out each time I cast on but never have to rip it out but I know other people have had some issues too.
