Heel


I've been wanting to try to knit socks. So I cast on to some dpns and it was a DISASTER. I had sticks flying everywhere. I decided I would try using a long circular needle (magic loop) and I've been getting the hang of that pretty quickly. I cast on some leftover yarn just to see if I could do it. I really just wanted to try a sample heel. I was able to cast on, knit in a rib stitch, knit stockinette, do a short row heel turn and work the gusset! I did all of that at the same time that I was trying out continental style. My stitches are all different sizes, but I really think that I could get the hang of it. Cool!
