New knitter and pockets

Met a lovely lady at the knitting class today, she wants to learn to knit, I helped her do a bit of casting on and off. She's going to come on Wednesday I think, too.

Made a pocket with welt and a diagonal pocket- unfortunately, picked up the auto-wrapped loops and not the actual stitches on the latter, so had to do a quick rescue operation to prevent it all falling apart. Knitting with some gorgeous variegated wool but it's old, so it keeps breaking.

Finished my first HK sock, now onto the second one - it fits really well, though I won't make it quite so long next time I use this pattern - it's kind of halfway up my calf, which looks kinda odd.
