I finally gathered the courage to start my „sock goals“ project, the Rad Radish Socks by Stoneknits. It took me so much time and willpower to start, because I have a really hard time getting myself to concentrate and try something new.

I had to do the part shown in the photo three times, though: The first time I did not look at any tutorials and kind of winged it. For catching floats, I twisted the balls of yarn in my yarn bowl ?

Up until now, way less scary than i thought it would be. I'm so excited to do it, the majority of my clothing is black, and finally my knitting is catching on.
