First Pair Completed!

TGIF on yet another blustery day!  I hope this finds you safe and well; we're good here.

I finally blocked the second of the first set of CSM socks:


 I continue to knit away on stuff, but still not much to show for it.  I've got some other blocking work to do, so perhaps there will be new pics soon!
