Socks!! or Should I Say Sock!!

We are going away for a couple of nights from tomorrow and it can't come too soon.  OH has got a really bad cold and is feeling terrible, and I am still struggling.  I booked it before my op thinking it would be ideal to get back some fitness by walking along the coast.  I asked for a room with a view of the sea luckily as I think we might be spending a lot of time in our room resting and recovering.

I am taking a book, always the first thing I pack :)  and I wanted to take something crafty.  The crochet blanket and quilt I am working on are just too much to take.  After looking at Christinas wonderful socks here http://christinascolourfullive.blogspot.co.uk , I decided to find the sock I started years ago.  I managed to work out where I was in the pattern, but had completely forgotten how to knit with the three needles it was on.  I Youtubed it and they all had more than 3 needles and it all looked very complicated.  If I had used more than three needles, I had no chance of finding the others after all this time.

I had very little left to do, I don't remember why I stopped at this stage.  So after years shoved away in a drawer, I figured out how to do it and actually finished it this afternoon :)

I love the colours, it changes as you knit

Ta Da!!  One sock.  Not perfect but not bad for my first sock.  I'm going to work on the other while we are away.  Now where did I put that glove I started on years ago :)
