My FIRST finished sock!
Ok So it has a few flaws. The toe isn't grafted quite beautifully and there is a small hole on the bottom where it looks like I dropped a stitch and picked it back up and yeah well. I'm too critcal my MIL tells me.

Here's a few pictures of it! Everyone is laughing b/c I'm walking around with one white sock on and one colored sock. I guess I need to do the 2nd one now

Also I know what I'm doing for christmas presents for a lot of the family now

Great job!! I haven't even tried a sock yet. Is that Red Heart Banana Berry yarn? I made a cardigan for my daughter with that yarn. :D
