    Default Going to attempt to knit socks

    I have recently crocheted a pair of socks, and it was fun. But I have that great yarn that makes stripes and it doesn't do it when you crochet. So, I am going to attempt to knit a pair. It's been a while, but I did find all my needles and dp needles. Keep your fingers crossed!

    I meant to also say that knitting them is alot of fun, but I have never used the sock yarn. I bet that'll be neat to watch as it comes along.

    Hi Cheryl! I've been trying to learn to knit so I can make sock too. Have you seen this web site. It has an online class to teach sock knitting with dpn, includes a sock pattern too, I think.
