Foot Measurement Help
General Knitting Questions | February 04, 2008
OK — I have a confession to make. I know this is silly of me to get to be as old as I am and not really know what the “ball” of my foot is. Is this the part right under my toes that is usually the widest part of my foot? And that is where I should measure for my foot circumference? I did notice in with the charts & other info they sent us they have some hints for measuring the length & width of my foot, does anyone else have anything helpful to say? I have knit 4 or 5 pairs of socks now, but have never felt confident about knowing how to measure my foot. Thanks.

Yes, that’s the ball. The round part below the big toe. If you are so inclined, Cat Bordhi’s book on sock architecture takes this to the next level. Fascinating!
