Sock: Cuff and Leg
Originally uploaded by i_bugsy.
Well, I've completed the cuff and the leg of my sock. So far I've been pleased with how its turning out. Although, you can't see the Garter Rib stitch on the leg because the yarn is mulit-colored.
The Garter Rib is knit 2, purl 2 for a whole round. The second round is all knitted. Then you repeat. It looked real nice in the book, but you really can't see it, other than it appears to be a rib, but not as tight as the cuff, which is knit 2, purl 2 for every round.
I've also made some minor mistakes, but they don't show because of the multi-colored yarn, so I guess it works out both negatively and positively!
The next part is a tricky part as I do the turning of the heel and then rejoin to make the foot. Once I get to the foot, it'll be a piece of cake!
