Oy Vey

Please forgive me in advance for this slightly childish rant.

The "Super Simple Socks" are not so at all and I'm afraid I'm in over my head. The switch to Addi Turbos may have something to do with it - coming from Clover circs, it's like knitting on spit. Seriously. I understand that's the point - projects are done lickety split. But it's hard, gosh darn it, and it's causing me such consternation I wonder if I've gotten ahead of myself by attempting socks on 2 circulars before ever attempting socks at all. I didn't think it would make much of a difference as far as techniques go - you have to start somewhere, right? So who really knows. I'll be trying again tonight - we have our knitterly lunch hour at work tomorrow, and a co-worker is attempting socks on two circs too; I feel like I should have something started before "knitting" with the group. Perhaps some ravelers have some useful advice...
