My Flying North Socks have plugged right along. Sock number one is complete!
These have been very soothing knitting for my sad heart of late. I’m almost done with sock number two.
I’ve just the ribbed cuff and afterthought heel left to complete. So just a couple of evenings and these will be done! Then I can bank more points for the 2015 Pigskin Party with Down Cellar studio.
The yarn isn’t the softest but is making a nice sturdy fabric. I’m hoping these make hard wearing socks! Also I’ve done a 60% afterthought heel instead of 50% and I think that is providing a better fit. Final judgment on that to come later…
Happy Knitting!
love the pattern
Can you explain what you mean by 50% afterthought heel?
When I put in the waste yarn for the afterthought heel I use 50% of the total stitches. In this case 35 of the 70 stitches.
