February goal: knit socks

40 comments

Since learning how to knit almost two years ago I have been slowly building up a stash of yarn to use for socks. Problem is, I don't know how to knit socks and now I have a bunch of yarn. In comes Craftsy to save the day!

For the month of February my goal is to knit my first pair and I'm learning how by taking the My First Socks Craftsy class. To be honest, I'm kind of waffling between liking the class and not liking it so far. Once I finish the lessons I'll let you know what I think.

The yarn for the first pattern is worsted weight and typically thicker than yarn used for most socks. It has been nice to use because I'm figuring out how everything comes together and it's really easy to see the stitches. I'm almost at the toe of the first sock and am excited to start the second. I know that's not a common feeling, but there are SO many mistakes on the first one that I can't wait to try and improve my skills on the second.

Do any of you have sock knitting tips for me?
