Finally, a FO!

The first of the German Flag socks is done! I used elann.com's toe-up sock pattern as a guide (with modifications for gauge) and I cut out some yarn (a la Alison) to keep the stripes continuous up the front. Since I just checked Meg Swansen's Knitting out of the library, I used EZ's sewn castoff at the cuff which I discovered I really like. I tend to bind off too tightly--and in toe-up socks that's NOT good.
This sock went really quickly. I expect that's because it's the first stockinette sock I've done--everything else has been patterned. Zoom! I'm wanting to cast on for the second, but I've got to work on finishing my dad's glove fingers, first.
