It always amazes me how yarn's appearance can change from the ball to the finished fabric.Sel and Poivrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05675373771037014713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17401386.post-54984405980598442252008-09-09T12:42:00.000-04:002008-09-09T12:42:00.000-04:00I'm trying to knit socks with Soxx Appeal, and it'...I'm trying to knit socks with Soxx Appeal, and it's driving me nuts. Because of the elastic, the foot wasn't snug enough. I ripped it back to the toe increases and made a foot with fewer stitches around. So far, so good, but -- how to figure how long to knit the foot?

This is yarn I encouraged my mother to buy, promising to knit socks for her, so I can't just chuck it, much as I am tempted to. <BR/><BR/>Many people seem to have easily knit socks with Soxx Appeal without all this angst.
