My first pair of socks

I'm very proud of this pair of purple socks cos they were the first time I knitted socks and were actually on time for my fren's birthday :D

I often start on projects for people's birthdays but am unable to complete them in time for the birthday...

Thank you Tricia for taking and sending me these pictures :)

Pattern adapted from a Guardian article on knitting

I knitted a baby blue elephant

The end product looks nothing like the picture in this free pattern I got off the internet.

Anyway the elephant is very soft & huggable.
Here's a picture of Reika with the elephant :)
