I made every possible mistake, right down to dropping the toe stitches while I was doing the kitchener thing, but -- I made it through a sock! Behold --
Congratulations! I once had to pick out Kitchener (on a mitten, I think) because I'd dropped a stitch all the way at the beginning. Here's to gaining confidence! :-)
HOORAY! I knew you could do it, and the sock looks great! I knit socks quite a bit, and there are always dropped stitches, kitchener mistakes, etc., so don't let that get to you too much.
Great job, be sure to show everyone when you wear them!
I knew it I knew it I knew it!!! You had it in you, you were just that great a knitter...and of course you made mistakes, are you perfect? I'm not!
WhooooooooooooooooHoooooooooooo! Give this gal a Knitter's Standing Ovation! (slip a crochet hook in that Posy Sock Sack so you can catch those dropped stitches quick!)
I'm soooo proud of you! Now...get busy on that second sock right away - NO SSS for you! (especially since you're going to have a skein of Roxanne's bamboo sock yarn coming your way in just about 1.5 months, right? (((hugs)))
Woo-Hoo is right! Well done and BRAVA, my friend:)! Now I must get going and make a real sock, not one that's felted down to size, effectively erasing any errors;)!

Wow! It IS a sock! Congrats. I know I felt like a "real" knitter when I knew I could do socks. All the skillz are right there.
Now I want to try a short row heel rather than a flap. But that won't happen this summer - strictly gater stitch squares for me right now. :)
