Experiments

Posted under socks

Some experiments just don’t work out. Take for example, the Waterfall Rib from Sensational Knitted Socks that I tried on some Opal sock yarn. See?

Just doesn’t work.

So I tried again.

I’m not sure this is any better, but I’m going with it. (Chevron Stitch from Sensational Knitted Socks.) Besides, I’m actually enjoying knitting this stitch pattern. Easy to memorize and with interesting increases and decreases.

Then we get to the afterthought or the “fore-thought” heel that is supposed to “form concentric circles of pattern, sometimes called ‘bulls-eye.’”

Do you see it happening?

Yeah. Me neither.

I’m going to live with this too though. I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing. This could be an eccentric design feature. Yeah. A design feature.
