Pattern:
International sock of doom by Julie Gardner
Yarn: Lana d'Irlanda
Needles: 3.5mm circular
Modifications: Didn't alternate "rib of doom" pattern.
My first socks! I learned a LOT from knitting these: magic looping, basic sock construction, and the names of each sock section. Despite not following the pattern exactly, they turned out really nice and comfortable. I don't have to buy socks anymore! I can knit them instead :D I need to find lighter weight yarn though. Lana d'Irlanda is a bit too thick for everyday wear.
Hmmmm....I wonder when my Hero single will finally arrive :O
