BEFORE AND AFTER

this is the before, it was even further along, i was on the foot

this is what it looks like now


I had so much trouble with the yarn, not the pattern, that I just decided that it wasn't worth the
trouble. When I was on the cable row, cause the yarn was so thin and dark in color
and my vision is not the greatest, I was dropping stitches, picking up stitches where they didn't
belong, and I was just getting so frustrated.
So the sock is now a ball of yarn.
How do I feel about it. GOOD! I'm ok with it.
anyone want a couple balls of Lana Grossa Meilemweit Cotton? LOL!!

Oh, can I relate.. I just had to frog most of a pair of socks because they were too tight (actually I got my little nephew to do it for me, it was too depressing!) *sigh* Back to the drawing board.

I love the color of the yarn , I would take it off your hands let me know. I have a pair on the needles now that are doomed. Knitting is to fun to keep working on something thats a punishment .
