Socks
Yarn: Opal Elemente in 1075 .
Pattern: “Sock it to ‘em” Starter Kit Pattern.
Needles: 2 mm DPN’s (5 needles).
Notes: I was a little scared of knitting with DPN’s, I had heard horror stories about ladders and missing stitches, but this pattern was really easy to follow, it was a little strange on the first few rounds of the rib - but by the time I got to the knitting part it was very easy.
The only real issues I had with the pattern were the live grafting, however, the instructions on Knitty were really helpful here.

You finished them! That’s great, now you can indulge in the wonderful world of weird coloured socks! Go have a look here if you fancy some more http://www.webofwool.co.uk/ or try some beautiful Koigu ones from Get Knitted.
Got to dash, times flashing by this morning. Have a good day!
