1st sock..ran out of yarn....better choice next time
Foot...13rows long
Then split the stitches in half and replace with same number of chain stitches 15 chain
continue on with 8 more rows of DC
Then finish off with 3 rows of rib

alternate DC into the front then back of the stitch below post...nice stitch creates a rib effect sew off end
 Back to the heel opening and pick up all the 30 stitches with a sc
in the round decrease one stitch in the corners both sides every round until there are 7 sts left each side then 
press together and slip stitch the opening  together using only half the stitch from each side

  1. Lovely colors Suz. I've been working on a pair of socks myself. Just now working on the heel that I have managed to frog about 10 times now. Seeing your finished project will spur me on!
