Look what I made!
Slipper Socks!!

I had started the first sock (gold) more than a month ago. When I finished it, I got distracted by mittens, and composing and Christmas....
Over the last few days, I made and finished the second one (blue), with a most unsuccessful binding off -- it was very tight and I couldn't fit my foot in it, so I had to try two more times before it worked.

I knit them with normal yarn and bigger needles than one should for socks because I just wanted to get the sense of how to do it before I use tiny needles and tiny yarn. Now, I feel prepared.

They are very warm and comfy!
