1st pair of knitted socks

I have finally learnt how to turn the heel and finish the sock with kitchener stitch. I didn't do it well, even after 3 attempts! But I am happy with my first attempt.

This is a simple knit 2, purl 2 ribbed sock Wool :- Lana Grossa, Cotton Spirit, colour 3005. There are a few mistakes in them, but overall, I am really pleased with these...I think I have come a long way from scarves and hats! :) I am going to wear them today! I have already started my second pair, a more complex pattern for the main part of the sock. Also, the boys and Phil have put in an order for a pair too! My German knitting is coming along well!
