I finished my sweater last night. It is big and ugly but it's all mine!

I am wearing it today at work. At least it's warm! I had to wear a black undershirt though because I knit the top the sleeves too loose and you can see through them if I wear something light colored underneath.
Now I start my first pair of socks. Already I hate sock knitting. Double pointed needles are a lot tougher than I remember. Maybe it's because these are so tiny.
I think I may have messed up already though. It said to cast on 64 stitches, but I just recently counted after a few rows and now I have 63 stitches. How did that happen? I double counted the 64 when I cast on, so I know that was right. And I couldn't see any dropped stitches. *sigh* I hate knitting.
