I'm sorry my videos skipped a step!
To work the instep, just repeat the two rows (one row with decreases, and one row of knit stitches) until the total number of stitches all around is 59. Then, you will knit every round for the length the pattern specifies for your size.

My cousin's yarn shop is Cottage Yarn, in Mint Hill, NC.

:knit: Thanks, I'll be busy now for sure. Working on the Baby Sack and the Socks. We may have to evacuate for Issac. I keep a back-pack loaded with all my supplies. :D and never leave home without it.

One of the many reasons I am glad when we moved back to Louisiana it was to North LA. After 6 yrs in Nebraska, 6 in Missouri and many trips to Kansas I can deal with tornados not with hurricanes :scared:
The sign of a true craftaholic...you pack your supplies and projects first :knit: then your clothes.

:hellogoodbye: We will be leaving in the morning. That crazy storm won't leave us alone. Spent all day packing. ladycath is 100% right. I do pack my crafts 1st, then clothes. :D I love Shreveport. I have relatives there. We are heading west for now to stay with relatives in Lake Charles, LA. Then to see our son in Beaumont, Tx. We're used to hurricanes and at least we get a warning long before they get here. We never stay. I don't like the thought of tornado's. Hopefully we'll only be out a couple of days.

I hope you have safe travels, and that everything survives the storm at home. Keep us informed!

Oh TJ I hope that all is well with you! I just skimmed through this thread and I am joining you both! I found two and a half inches of ribbing in the round with sock yarn and 3.25 dpn's!
I am going to continue with the Bernat pattern :knit:
