At first the yarn felt a bit thick, but after walking around in it for a little bit I forgot about it. And it was a bit hard to get the thick needle through the sock. The actual weaving went very smoothly.

It’s amazing that people used to do this regularly. Especially during WWII. That looks like a lot of work.
I can’t imagine how long it used to take to make everything by hand. I’ve crocheted a few blankets and things and it’s easy enough to do while watching TV, but it takes some serious hours.
I bought the loom and then put it off for ages anticipating a big project, and then finished it up chatting while my kid picked up Legos.
