A Pair of Socks


After my first attempt at Thanksgiving to make a sock, I put it down for a while. Last Sunday, I decided it was time to make a pair of socks. I knew what I didn't like about the trial sock.

This sock I made using size 0 needles so the stitches are closer together.
I made a short-row toe, just as before.
Instead of a short-row heel, I did a gusset heel. I like the looks of that better and it allows for a little more give in the arch.
I did a Russian bind-off to make it stretchy at the top.

Well, that's one thing you can mark off your to do list! You have now conquered sock knitting. Bravo!
