Monkey Pattern

General Knitting Questions, Notorious Sock Knitters | April 21, 2008
By Patti

 
 

I feel like I’m in the crapper since I wasn’t able to go to Camp Crows feet, maybe next year. But is it true we will be able to get the little monkey pattern here? I am a HUGE sock monkey fan, I think all of us who grew up in the 50’s and 60’s are. If so will the pattern be for sale, or is it going to be shared. Thanks. ps looking forward to stitches midwest, signed up for the sock class with JC.

Thank you Tina.  I can’t say that I have ever had more fun than I had a sock camp.  Thank you to all the Sockateers, JC, Cat, Steph and Cookie.  It was an unbelievable experience.

Can’t figure out how to work the heel

By Chaya Mushka Davey

 
 

I have knitted 8-10 pairs of socks without much trouble but this heel is throwing me for a loop.  With past sock patterns…. the heel stitches are on one needle and the instep stitches are on the other (i knit with 2 circs) and i have done a few different types of heels but this one has me stumped.  i have done the slip1 knit1 part and am trying to figure out the w & t part….  i finished last RSC heel and even made another pair but to w & t and still be doing the knit on the R side and P on the W side  and work the leafing pattern… how does that work???  working in the round and “R and W side P and K” together????  HELP… i really love this socks, and don’t want to quit and don’t have anyone at a LYS to ask for help.   Thank you to anyone that can help me and let me finish and wear this gorgeous socks proudly!!!

I’m just getting started on Leafling, and on round 1 of the leg I get more than 27 sts, in fact I get 29 sts! Round 2 looks like 27. What am I missing?
