I will never do it again. I am commited to DPN. Love your Kauni. I am still trying to screw up the courage to start mine (oh and I need a ballwinder to deal with the yarn first). Thanks for the tip.<BR/><BR/>entangledentangledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10702059740465898572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182449617196452991.post-78342208181546157382007-09-03T07:35:00.000-06:002007-09-03T07:35:00.000-06:00Thanks Sheryl..

I mostly followed the direction in the Denise Powell tutorial on sockknitters.com (great tutorial) - but I wanted a gusset and a short row heel so after I did the foot section - I followed Cookie's directions on Knitty.com for Baudelaire socks (had to adjust it for my stitch count). So far so good. I still don't think I did the wraps correctly but it did end up back to my stitch count. <BR/><BR/>By the way - I did this with DPN's. I don't think I would like doing it on circulars. Too much stuff flying around. The DPN's are enough for me!<BR/><BR/>Good luck!RickiLynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07377869309831447581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5182449617196452991.post-52096543810683165882007-09-03T07:01:00.000-06:002007-09-03T07:01:00.000-06:00I'm impressed with your sock. I just took a class ...I'm impressed with your sock. I just took a class in June (still working on the 1st pair) but they are top down. I tried to self teach myself toe up, but since I don't have anyone to ask knitting questions.... I'm using dpn's which is working well for me, but I'd like to still learn toe up! I'm such a visual learner... <BR/><BR/>And I LOVE your sweater. It is amazing! I'm going to try my first sweater (cardigan) here in a couple of weeks. I'm wanting to finish my socks first!Sherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08337214374048229737noreply@blogger.com
