EUCLID'S LOVE
Gusset: Round 1: On needle 1, continue to work in chart pattern as before. On needle 2: k1, kf&b, k until 2 stitches remain, kf&b, k1 Round 2: On needle 1, continue to work in chart pattern. On needle 2, knit all stitches Continue to work rounds 1 and 2 until there are 56 stitches on needle 2 Turning the Heal: Working back and forth ONLY on needle 2, turn the heel as follows: Row 1: K31, SSK, K1, turn Row 2: Slip 1, P7, P2tog, P1, turn Row 3: Slip 1, K8, SSK, K1, turn Row 4: Slip 1, P9, P2tog, P1, turn Continue in this manner until all the stitches are worked and you again have 32 stitches on needle 2. Leg: Resume working in the round. Begin to work the pattern (starting with the same row of the chart) on both needles 1 and 2. Work the leg until it is 1.5 inched shy of the desired length, ending with row 42 of the chart. Cuff: Work in ribbing below on every round for 1.5 inches or desired length: \*K 4, P3, K1; repeat from \* across both needles. Bind off: I prefer to bind of my toe-up socks in pattern using the Russian Bind-Off as detailed on Wendy Johnson's Blog: http://wendyknits.net/archives/1152 or in her book, Socks From the Toe Up Whatever bind-off method you use, make sure that it is stretchy so that it will go over your heel. Weave in all ends and enjoy your new socks! AbbreviationsUsed in the Pattern K: Knit P: Purl Kf&b: Knit into the front of the stitch and into the back of the same stitch. This forms a 1 stitch increase. Slip 1: Slip one stitch form the left hand needle to the right hand needle as if to purl SSK: Slip, Slip, Knit. This forms a one stitch decrease.
