I’m literally so close to finishing my first pair of knitted socks that I can feel how awesome they are going to be when I finally get to wear them!

Knitting socks has been a goal of mine for a while now. I’ve started many a cuff only to tear out the stitches (and a little of my hair) at the tension issues I was experiencing. I finally bit the bullet and invested in some lovely Turtle Purl Yarn and committed myself to figuring this out.

I can’t wait to show you the final product.

And of course, I’ve already begun looking for my next sock pattern. This time I’m definitely tackling a heel. And I’m also going to try knitting them two-at-a-time on my circulars.

Are you a sock knitter?

What crafting challenge did you have a hard time getting started at only to persevere and find it was one of your greatest loves?
