I’m becoming a sock! SLUT , LOL


I’m becoming a sock! SLUT , LOL

I couldn’t help it , I stopped working on my adult sock
and picked up new yarn & DPN’s . Walla, Baby socks.
I’m becoming a sock slut in such a short time.
I already have a third pattern in mind.
Talk about a quick and fast addiction.

I have become a full blow addict
in just four days.

Dairies of a NEW Sock Knitter !
First time making SOCKS! I FEEL like the title of the book " I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M KNITTING SOCKS"
I HAVE NEVER WORKED WITH YARN THIS THIN, WITHOUT

Doubling / Tripling IT!. At first I was getting frustrated , no insistent gratification here! LOL. However my frustrations are quickly becoming amazement.
