Sock Class

After reading about the Yarn Harlot's travelling socks, I thought it might be fun to try one of my own. So I signed up for sock class at Yarns & Fabrications, my local yarn store. I bought some yummy Cherry Tree Hill sock yarn and a loverly 40-inch Addi Turbo circular, and started learning how to use the Magic Loop method to make a sock.

I had some issues at first. Somehow I kept making an extra loop of yarn around the needle whenever I went to switch sides. Which was giving me an extra stitch every time. Not so fun. But we eventually got it figured out, and now I'm making good progress. See?
