Socks and the City

I must say that i am quite smitten with my first pair of socks! the pattern is from Patons/Kroy in Kool Stripes. I used my very first pair of Brittany dpns, while indulging in a few glasses of Sally Cat and a couple of Graceland chocolates. When i started i thought that they would be a gift for my ma, but being my first pair they turned out somewhat slouchy and a little loose...i must perfect the sock craft and then conquer the world (oh, and knit a pair for me ma!).
