Yay fer socks
At last, the Conwy socks are complete. I would have finished them on my lunch break today, but I'm a bad knitter who does not carry a tapestry needle on her person at all times.

They fit, but barely. It could be that my feet have grown a bit.



The rundown:

Conwy socks from Knitting on the Road
Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport in Watercolor
U.S. size 1 needles; metal for one sock, bamboo for the other (following a tragic bus stop accident wherein I lost one of four needles)

I changed a lot more on these than I thought (and nothing much that I can remember, aside from doing the toe the "normal" way), which made knitting the second one (almost two years later) quite the adventure.

As per tradition, I am wearing them now.
