I had sworn off socks. Really. Swore I’d never, ever try making them again. Gave away the first sock yarn I ever bought along with my size 000 – 1 DPNs. Then I started acquiring sock yarn via the Karma Yarn Swap group on Ravelry. Then purchased a 47″ size 1 needle, just in case. Just before we left for Paris I managed to cast on the toe of a sock successfully (after 5 tries). Sure, this took me forever but evearything takes me forever. I’m now hooked on making socks. I’ve got yarn for a good ten more pairs worth of yarn waiting in the wings.
