May pattern - Gusset question
May '08 Kit Questions, Notorious Sock Knitters | July 02, 2008
I’m knitting the gussets on the Cleo socks and have increased them to 15 sts. It seems like they’re already far enough back on my foot and if I go to 19 sts, the socks aren’t going to fit properly. I’m a novice sock knitter, though, so don’t really trust my own judgment on this.
Has anyone else had this experience with the pattern? And if I stop the gussets now, what other adjustments will I need to make?

What size are your feet? I wear an 8 to 8 1/2 and the pattern fit me as is, with the medium size.
I wear a 9.5 and am knitting the medium size. I knit to 5-1/4″ as called for by the pattern and that had me starting the gusset mid-arch, as in the picture.
Out of curiousity, with a size 8 to 8-1/2 foot, what row did you get to in the front slash pattern before you began the gusset?
With a size 9, I started on the 14th row of the second repeat and the feet fit erfectly.
