I have always heard that turning a heel of a sock is really satisfying, and until this morning, I had no idea what they were talking about!
Now, I have no idea why it’s so satisfying, but it really was!! It was a little exciting to tell you the truth!! It was so great watch the sock ‘turn’ and to be able to see that it really does become a heel!
As I am currently making my first ever socks (Neale’s Space Invaders Socks) finally reaching the end of the leg part and starting on the heel (a very confusing experience at first!!) I have no successfully turned one heel and am about to do the same with the other!! That way I can go on knitting them 2 at a time on 2 circulars. I still have to pick up the stitches for the gussets, but other than that I am on my way!!
I have decided that I quite like making socks!! I even have picked out some for my dad, sister and aunt!
