Why did I think they might need to be started over - that floppy picot edge. Because these were too small the first round. This time I cast on 12 extra stitches on the foot. I knit the heel flap over 60% of the stitches and knit it for much longer than called for. After that, I picked up 2 more stitches than the slipped stitch edge and reduced them out right away. I continued decreasing the gusset until the original 72 stitches where on the needles.

They look great! My socks with the picot edge are also a touch loose at the top; I think that's the way they're supposed to work?
ReplyDeleteI don't know a thing about knitting socks. But yours always look cute. And if Chan says hers are loose at the top, then tell yourself, "This is a great design feature!"
