Just finished the first bedsock tonight! The fit is just right (having tried on the half made sock last night to check how long it needed to be). The Dutch/German heel turn is fine for wearing-round-the-house socks or bedsocks, but might not be so comfy for wear in shoes. The yarn is lovely and looks beautiful knitted up - it's nice to work with as well. Photos to follow.
I even managed to untangle the skein and roll the rest of it in a ball - and then did the same to the other skein before I started knitting with it. Given that the cuff of the sock isn't that long, I'll be able to get fingerless gloves out of the remnants of the 2 skeins. I'll cast on the next sock tomorrow.
Needless to say that no other projects have really had a look in over the last few days...
