My First Socks!

I'm very proud to have completed my first pair of socks! I used Opal Ladybird sock wool and a beginners sock kit from Get Knitted for them. I blindly followed the instructions and hey presto they turned out really well. They fit me just right without having to adjust the pattern (I take a 5 1/2 shoe). I wish I had noted where exactly I started the first one, because it was hard to make the second one identical. Nevermind! I'm happy with them as a first attempt. Next I'm going to make DH a pair of bedsocks ready for winter.
