Looked up a pattern on the net. I've never knitted with 4 needles before, so this was a new experience for me. There is so much to learn! I needed the tutorials that are offered on the net if you google the knitting term (even casting on - I'd forgotten how to do it!).<br /><br />Looking forward to seeing your completed socks!

I remember starting an Irish Sweater for my husband years ago, it was intricate, so much so that after I stopped for a couple of weeks I could never remember how to get back to it. Now I only knit baby blankets – for my grand children and my daughter’s friends – easy patterns.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.com
