I can remember that awful feeling of doing it before I understood it, and I'd get simply panicky that I'd mess it up and have no clue how to fix it. But now I don't even need to refer to directions, I've done it so often. So I just wanted to tell you, it gets better. :)amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02429539000041713324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7917518744719187838.post-83319207632072347222007-11-14T20:55:00.000+11:002007-11-14T20:55:00.000+11:00Great job on your socks - congratulations!

Congratulations on the first pair. Awesome feeling, isn't it? You could try adding a bit of hair conditioner to the rinse when you wash your socks.
