Started My Second Sock!

It seems silly that I would be so excited about starting on the second sock in a pair but I must at admit I am stoked.  This is my first pair of socks ever.  The first one turned out pretty good and fits my foot perfectly!  Just knowing that I've passed the halfway point of my project gives me a sense of accomplishment.

Baby Soft Ankle Socks

I've been working on these socks for about two weeks and I'm almost finished the first sock.  This is the first time I've ever knit a pair of socks so it's been a bit slow going.  So far I'm pretty happy with them.  The biggest challenge of knitting in the round for me is my "weird" style of knitting requires normally requires a purl row to untwist the stitches.

Thankfully the internet came to my rescue (what a wonderful invention) and I found out a modification I could make to keep the stitches from twisting while still maintaining my preferred knitting style.
