And that's lift off!

Yep, cast on for the first sock in my SSS odyssey - see my blog for totally shonky picture. It's a very basic ribby sock in Opal on 2.25mm bamboo needles (which are bending after having completed two other pairs), so I'm thinking some steel/aluminiums are in my future.

I've made very little progress so far (I know it's only day three), but I'm feeling totally inadequate by comparison to some achievements already.

I think it's a great start!! I'm sure some people haven't even started one sock yet, so don't feel inadequate!! We're all sock friends here!

I recently got the set of metal sock needles from Knit Picks, the one where you end up with 6 sizes of sock needles all in one place? I LOVE it. I will never have to go shopping for sock needles again.
