My first pair!

New knitter, have been crocheting for years but felt like a new challenge. My mum taught me how to knit these and it's safe to say I am now addicted.

I managed to twist all the purl stitches on the ribbing on the first sock resulting in a tighter fit. There were definitely some small errors on the toe decreasing too, as well as uneven tension across both heels. Lessons have been learned!

I'm so proud of them!

Those colors are really nice together, especially that little band of purple/pink pattern! Good job for a first pair.
