Ah…finally I finished my first sock!!! However, I will be knitting it slightly differently for the 2nd sock. The cuff is still a little tight and it’s a bit hard to put it on although I did cast off using 3.25 mm needle. I’ll probably try the Elizabeth Zimmermann’s sewn bind off next time and hope that it’ll be much strechier. I have to pull quite hard to wear the sock :dead: but nevertheless, I’m really happy with my first sock!!!

Wow! That was fast, and it looks great. I have had that problem with toe up socks in the past, and have just cast off really loosely. I will check back to see how you go with the sewn cast off.
