My First Socks

i've been knitting a few gifts that i would love to show but since they haven't been given yet i thought i would post a sorta recent project that i'm proud of... my first pair of socks.



and here is david modeling them:


they were a bit of a challenge. the heels came out a bit weird and the toes a bit pointy because i knit a little on the tight side (go figure). but hey, i don't think i did too poorly for my first pair of socks.

the unfortunate thing is that they were knit with a wool that is a little on the itchy side. so i'm not sure how often i'll wear them.
