After a mighty long hiatus from socks , making an attempt again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Last pairs were too small for my feet, in 2018\/2019. My feet spread out with my PTTD. And I was knitting at such a tight gauge, my hands were hurting too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So I\u2019m doing these still on my US 1, but attempting to not make them so bulletproof, with a lot of trying on along the way to ensure they won\u2019t be too snug – instead of trusting my previous numbers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Using my normal toe from Cat Bordhi, with Judy\u2019s Magic Cast on, 2 at a time. Cast on 14, increasing to probably 40 to start with, and then a few more gradual increases until I\u2019m over my big toe joint. Then a mini gusset from the end\/middle of my arch to my heel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Increasing to 40 or 42 was just too much, so I went back and stopped at 38. This still will be a little loose for swollen feet days. At about the 2″ mark from the toe upward, added an increase on each end of the top of the sock to give a little more ease there for the rounded shape of my foot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Attempting this! knit to 7 1\/4\u201d long before heel. heel over 42st: 1-13-14-13-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finished right after Halloween!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
