WIP First Sock Complete

#1

This is my first attempt at an adult sized sock. :woohoo: The pattern is the ‘Lacy Mock Cable Sock’ from Island of Misfit Patterns site.
The yarn used was Patons Kroy sock yarn in Winter Eclipse and needles were size 3 and made of metal. I found the metal needles much harder on my hands than bamboo and from now on only plan on using bamboo needles for sockwork.
Now I just have to get around to knitting the twin (I have already started knitting up some fabulous Fleece Artist sock wool into another pair of socks, oh my!:x: )
