Learning the craft of knitting (better)

Check this out! I have joined the ranks of "those sock knitters". I finished a pair and they came out relatively the same size (with a needle size change between the two). Grandmother W taught me (many) years ago and I dabbled in the back and forth making a few scarves. This winter I decided to take it further. I knit a few doily-type hot pads, and a set of training socks to understand the concept of the parts, then got to work. Kirk is enjoying them, says they are warm and comfy. A new set is now started on the needles... hoping they fit me :-)
