Now for sock two. The hardest thing in knitting. Afterthought heel. No real pattern was used but I did write it down as I made it so I can repeat it.

I’m tired of buying socks that blow out after a week. I have been hoarding discount sock yarn for years and it’s time get it used so I can repair instead of toss.

    If that’s a fear then get bamboo needles instead of metal ones. Makes a huge difference. I kinda wish I had some size 1 bamboos. Normally the metal ones don’t slip but if I’m doing surgery with just one to three stitches on a needle it might.

      All of the ones I have are wooden in some form, cause the metal makes my hands sad! It’s silly brain things.
