Socks



I really must stop casting things on!

I've now cast on for a pair of socks, Marella by Jeanette Trotman. I got the pattern from issue 3 of Let's Knit magazine. Have found out they are also called Stripy Lace Socks from the Easy Knitted Socks book.

All's going well the pattern is very easy, the only problem I've got is with the DPNs. They just keep getting in the way of each other, it could be because this is my first pair of socks and I'm being cack handed but I think for the next socks I'll have to buy some circular needles and do them that way.

The DPNs are pretty though, they actually came with that issue of the magazine.

I found you with an internet search on these socks because I am so lost....

I managed the heel but I think I now have the start of my rows in the wrong place and that will make my toe all wonky. I was hoping someone might have images to help me out :S. I already ripped it back once... :'(

Any help?
