And they're more comfortable than RTW socks, and they're faster to knit than sweaters, and more portable as well. <br />I remember knitting my first sock when I was about 18 and the pattern I used said 'knitting socks is easier than you think and once you've knitted one, you'll find that you're never without a sock on your needles'. Although I stopped knitting for a number of years (sewing had my preference), it's true that I now usually have a sock in progress.Cybèlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15470546757550328725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1212418696571974399.post-19729536918622226852009-05-30T11:38:43.641+10:002009-05-30T11:38:43.641+10:00I knit socks because they are portable (large, com...I knit socks because they are portable (large, complex lace projects are not) and nearly instant gratification when you have lots of startitis and no finishitupus.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362464368952076578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1212418696571974399.post-21685963104438107592009-05-30T11:09:05.466+10:002009-05-30T11:09:05.466+10:00Indeed you were Helen!
