Better the Second Time Around

The second toe-up sock was so much easier than the first!  After ripping and re-knitting various sections of the first sock a number of times, I was almost afraid to start the second.  However, since I had already decided upon the toe, heel and bind-off, the second sock was a breeze.

After having knit all my previous socks using a dutch heel, I was worried about the fit on a short row heel, but Maddie thought they were comfortable, and they look as if they fit nicely. 

Heck, I may become a toe-up sock knitter yet!

Love how those socks pooled.

Glad you didn't get put off by the first sock... it will be even better with the next pair...

I'll have to dredge up this toe-up pattern that I made for Rebecca, the best fitting sock EVER... I bet you'd like it, Maddie, too!

Love the socks...I need to do another pair for my daughter for Christmas. Thanks for sharing.
