UPCOMING THEMES
TBA!
The socks with my first ever fish lips kiss heel are done! They even got a spin through the washer and dryer because our dog spilled milk on them (yes our dog lol).
My spouse tried them on and they fit perfectly. For my next pair of socks I’m not sure if I’ll use this heel again - I do really like it but now it’s got me wondering what other awesome heels I haven’t done yet.
I know absolutely nothing about knitting but those socks look nice.
Thank you!
They look amazing. How long did each take to make?
Thanks! I started them on Christmas Eve. I just don’t get a lot of time to knit so things take me a little longer. I knit them both at the same time on circular needles.
Nice work! Roxanne Richardson on YouTube has a neat series of videos on several heel constructions for toe up and cuff down if you are looking for different heels. She also talks about measurements for various foot shapes.
I’ll have to check that out! I’m nearing heel time on my current project
