kroy Socks, done.

Yay, I've finished my first pair of real, able to wear, socks. I love the feel of them on my feet and am spurred on to knit more.

I used the Kroy sock pattern with
Regia Jacquard yarn in 5296 Brussels and 2.5mm DPNs. The stripes don't quite match up, I thought I'd gotten the beginning colours right but obviously I didn't, oh well, just adds to that hand knit quality :-)

Even though I knit the smallest size they are still a little large so next time I'll use
Violet Green's sock calculator pattern and hopefully they'll fit much better (that's what I get for having a Uk size 3 foot) I'm looking forward to my next pair.
