After a few false starts, I managed to figure out the figure eight cast on for toe up socks. I even managed to start on the increases during my lunch break. Today when I took it out to admire my handiwork, one of the needles fell out and shot it all to hell (stupid m1 increase at the beginning of the needle totally screwed me from figuring out how to put it back on the needle without a giant gaping hole) so I ripped it back. The sock is currently yarn in a skein again.
I am going to distract you from my behaving-as-a-two-year-old temper tantrum for fucking up the sock with this pretty picture of the sky. Woo, pretty!
Sigh….
I’m going to be a pro at the figure eight cast on when it’s all said and done.
That sucks girl!!! Tantrum on!!!
Sorry for the sock trauma…..I just don’t get these folks that can knit socks seeminly without any trauma or drama….just whip those babies out in a day or two!! I am YET to make a pair of socks without SOMETHING happening! Hope you can get back on track with this one!
