Sock Talk

Finished my latest pair of socks. These are the ones my sister started, then admitted knitting socks really wasn’t her thing. I offered to finish them for her. Finally done. What really irks me about knitting socks is that, no matter how careful I am, no two socks are ever exactly the same size. Although I’ve used the same needles, maybe I knitted tighter the second time around, or maybe a few more rows sneaked in when I wasn’t looking, who knows.

I’m glad I’m done. Now I get to start a new project (or finish a couple of others I’m working on).
