Halfway there!

Olympic Knitting 2006

And even a bit ahead of schedule! (My goal was to have sock 1 done by Saturday night.)

I am loving the yarn, and the cables, but I'm not so sure about the actual pattern. The heel was kind of weird, and the toe was really strange. I'm reserving judgment until they're both done and I'm wearing them.

This accomplishment did not come without a casualty, however:

It was a good needle, and it served well. I'm sure I won't be able to throw it away (I'm weird like that), so it will go into a happy retirement. And yes, I brought extras.

Whew - glad you had extras!! Jeanne had to go to extreme measures because she's using discontinued (and oh-so-fragile) Addi Natura 1s...

The heel does look sort of odd...

Good job getting done ahead of schedule. The sock looks really good.

I broke my first sock needle a couple of weeks ago and I am STILL waiting for a replacement from Brittany...
