Vanilla Sock by Crazy Sock Lady on magic loop in Estelle Sock twin crazy ball. Was not a huge fan of the yarn, as it is pretty splitty and a little rough but you guys I did it! I made my first ever pair of socks! And the rusticness of the yarn helps hide my beginner mistakes lol

    I took some advice from that thread, and my first project was a hat, just to get used to knitting. It’s all loops in loops, you’ll get it quickly. I think it’s good to do something else first because socks come in a pair and I don’t think my second would have come as close to matching my first if I had dove in with them to start.

    I think the best advice I got was to look up continental style knitting, since it tensions the yarn in your left hand. I hold my yarn the same for crochet and knitting.

    Let me know how it goes!
