FO My first ever knitted sock...
OMG it is really a sock!!! I ACTUALLY FINISHED THE SOCK AND IT LOOKS LIKE ... A SOCK!!!

Ok, so here are a few pictures of DH test driving his new sock. I let him wear the sock just long enough to take pictures and make sure that it fits him.

Here are the pictures of MY FIRST KNITTED SOCK!

I am sorry picture number three is so dark. I was trying to show the heel off, but it did not want to show up too well. Anyways, this is the sock, my very first attempt.

Thanks for looking!

Sorry the colours on the picture are not very accurate. It is late at night to be taking pictures and inside pictures don't turn out too well in here I find. Anyways, I will CO number 2 sock tomorrow and go at it again.

The only thing I don't like is the way the grafting turned out. It sure is NOT invisible unless I did it wrong. Perhaps the second sock will look better. We shall see.

Anyways, I have earned my bed tonight and that is where I am going right now!

That looks great Christine! Don't worry about grafting, the first time I did it, it looked like poo. The second time was a little better and when I did it last night it looked like it was supposed to-you'll get the hang of it.
