Sock!!!

I cast on Wednesday night for my very first ever sock! It's in a really pretty purple/green colorway of Anne, from Schaefer Yarns, and it's a pattern from Knitting Pure & Simple. My friend Christina talked me into it. So far I've cursed at her, the yarn, and the needles, and decided that k1p1 is the devil, and I have an ugly ladder, but I'm keeping on.
