Here It Is - My Very First Knitted Sock
in all of it's Wonky-ness.....I did it and I'm happier than a Pig in Puddin'. I just need to make the other one now. There are a ton of mistakes but I know what NOT to do on the second one....so without further adoo:

It's GORGEOUS!!!!!
I love it. Seriously, I don't see any mistakes. That's the wonderful thing about socks...who's really gonna be looking at your feet that closely
What yarn did you use? I love those colors!

What mistakes?
I am jealous that you have managed to learn to knit. That's one thing I have not been able to master. I tried and failed, won't be trying again. Gave away my needles and yard.
See, I'm not good at everything.

Oh Thank You, Thank You! Oh YAnkeeMom I do LOVE sock knitting - I'm Hooked!
I used Bernat Sox in Hot Tamale with #2 dpn's. That is a #7 laying on the yarn. I picked up the wrong needle.
I've started a Slipper type sock in a Worsted Weight using the #7's as a donation to the Nursing Home. I'll post those when I'm done. It is getting easier for me now and I am so very excited....what a nice change from scarves, hats and dishcloths. I don't feel like a total Newbie Knitter anymore.

It's beautiful!!!
I just finished my first as well. I made a crew sock in with a very similar yarn. I'm halfway done the second.
Congratulations!

Beautiful socks! I don't see a single mistake, did you hide them on the other side?
It looks great.

You are going to see and notice all it's mistakes. Everyone else will see it and love it.
