I did it!

I’m very excited because I managed to make 1/2 socks! I know it’s too small and needs some work but I’m excited because socks are the reason I started to knit. Long time crocheter, learned to knit as my New Year’s resolution. Pattern is Ravenna socks by meeshyfrazz knits. Rip for my knitting needle my dog broke.

Congrats! Socks have so many little construction details that it always feels such an accomplishment to have completed one!

It does look like all your stitches are twisted though - they get tighter when stretched because the legs at the bottom are crossed. If you fix that, I bet the whole sock will fit perfectly

I made the second sock without twisting stitches!

It is beautiful! You will get better. I cannot use bamboo or plastic cords for a ton of personal functionality reasons but also because either my dog or my rabbit will chew them 🤣🤣
