Basic Ankle Socks! Learn to Knit Socks

[tjwjlove]

I'm so sorry you had to re-do the video and tare out all your work. I can wait. Don't know where I get the patience from. Oh, I know, with out it I can't do it. With the Irish, English, Italian, (or the French I married) in me, no wonder I can't sit still.

I'm a SUPER STAR, Shaking my house too. I love it. Everything worked out great. No problems. I love to be serenaded and by such a beautiful voice. Did you ever figure out who the composer was? Did you get to play it in church? I'll bet that was beautiful.

[Shandeh]

You ARE a superstar!
Thanks for watching the video, my friend.
The composer's name is Gabriel Faure. He's one of my favorites.
And Yes, I DID perform "Sicilenne" for the prelude this past Sunday. I did pretty well, but nothing like Patrick Gallois. He's an amazing performer.

I'm still a little under the weather, just can't seem to shake this bug. I'm trying to do the socks. Watching the video's is so helpful. I'm on the 1st rnd after the shaping of the Instep. So far everything is working out great. I just wanted to let you know, I have not given up and that I am working on them again.

[Shandeh]

I hope you get better very soon!

Good news on your socks. I'm still working on mine too.

I was thrilled to find the videos for the socks. I new to using dpn's and making socks so I love the videos. Will there be additional videos added? I have worked to the toe but not sure if I have knitting them correctly or how to finish the toe seem. Thank you for guiding me through my socks making adventure!

Congratulations on learning to knit socks!

I have been working on the foot part now (instep), and should get to the toe shaping soon. I will make a video for that section. Did you bind off your toe stitches?

I usually do kitchener stitch to close off the toe, but I will cast off and seam this time, since the pattern is written that way. I will be sure to video that as well.

I haven't been feeling well this week, so only basic knitting for me. Last night, I worked on my ankle sock, and finished all those inches I needed for the instep!

So now, I'm ready to make that toe shaping video. Stay tuned!

I see your on the toe part. I stopped with the last video. Shape instep after rnd.2 and to the 59 sts. I thought you had a trick to show us before proceeding on to the 6". If I have to work in just rounds to the toes, I think I can do that. I just don't want to miss any of your tricks, they have helped so much.

I'm sorry to ask, but could you give me the name of your cousin's shop. I have visited her site and would like to see it again. Thanks.
