But, when I get to the heel and have to k1, slip 1 for the heel flap, I can't handle that.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04278529449974055377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32804163.post-6418760990795005802007-01-20T19:34:00.000-06:002007-01-20T19:34:00.000-06:00Conversational knitting is a great term, exactly r...Conversational knitting is a great term, exactly right.

I've come to have a couple of these projects going on at a time, usually scarves. I've found that diagonal-knit garter stitch is ideal, as is mistake-rib. The multiple projects happen if I run into a problem with one, and can't get it fixed before the next occasion for these easy knits. Many knitters use socks for traveling projects, but I can't deal with the small gauge due to vision problems in low light.CatBookMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13539824268008907535noreply@blogger.com
