It's all about the feet.

The Fuzzy Feet are felted and blocking as we speak! The felting didn't happen 100% but they did shrink down to the right size. I can still see some stitch definition though, not much, but it's there. Damn my tight knitting. I'm so glad I've learn how to do this: That's my first turned heel And where I am as of this morning I can only imagine the trouble I'd have trying to wrestle with tiny dpns. I'd probably knit those entirely too tight as well. I'm finding the 2 circs very comfortable to deal with now. Once I got used to handling them, and the size of the 2's and the sock yarn, it's gone swimmingly.

Congratulations on your first turned heel! I am going to have to give socks a try one of these days.

And, I love the green color of your fuzzy feet, very nice!

Coolness! I'm knitting my very first sock. I'm 2/3 down the heel flap, so THE TURN is looming. :) I'm using 2 circulars too, and I love it. DPNs -- bah!
