Last night I finished 50% of W's socks. I'm pretty proud to have finished one so quickly, especially with all the other WIPs I have going on right now. (So... Many...)
Anyway, for posterity, I feel like I should write down what I did. I don't feel like anyone else will want to know my particular manly sock formula, but I need to know it, to make the second sock!
So, here's the knit code:
72 Stitches. Work in a 3x3 rib for 11 rounds. Work half a round, then start heel flap over 50% of the stitches. Heel flap is 23 rows long, with a slipped stitch edge. Heel is a half kercheif heel with 7 stitches in the middle. Pick up 15 stitches from either side of the heel flap. Decrease 7 times on each side for the gusset. Should be back to 72 stitches. Work 12 cm, then decrease four stitches every other round until there are 26 stitches. Kitchner off.
LOve love love the striping. ALl those stitches though...ugh tiny tiny ones.....I just finished a 56 stitch sock and that was more than my eyes could handle. Hat s off to you
