I was always worried about turning the heel before I'd knit socks but you only have to do it once and all the mystery's gone, it's the picking up of stitches which I don't like.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-430657697031198722015-05-18T16:11:58.104+01:002015-05-18T16:11:58.104+01:00You should take a look at Christine's tutorial...You should take a look at Christine's tutorial on her blog, there's other options rather than double pointed needles.

Best not to rush it, the good thing about knitting is you can just pick it up and put it down quite easily. I've just started the heel flap on my first sock and I'm only knitting when I know I won't be interrupted for a little bit as I need to concentrate! xxAlisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10007583111181817717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5605977931488846865.post-63950369907201709642015-05-18T13:15:36.847+01:002015-05-18T13:15:36.847+01:00lovely colour, I wish I could master socks.
