Yes, but my knitty, socky friends:
Is there a way to avoid that ankle slouch? I thought my ankles were in good proportion to my foot and calf, but apparently they're super tiny. Is it the ribbing that creates that "80's slouch sock" look (but only at the ankle; above the ankle it's fine)? Is it just this pattern? Did I cast on too many stitches? Should I switch to size 00000 needles? I couldn't decide on a pattern last night, I cast on, and then unraveled after about 7 or 8 rows because now I'm unsure of sizing. Help!
lindyhop, I'm also working on a sampler afghan (also knitted) that is made in squares. The trouble is (and I might never have bought this book if I'd noticed this in the store) is that when each square is done, I have to crochet around the edges. It says to put 48 evenly spaced single crochets, but I'm too lazy to do the math, so I'm hoping it won't matter. Well, I've decided it won't matter. But I'm having trouble with guage with the crochet. I'm terribly inconsistent and it gets wobbly. My point with all this rambling? Um...I think crochet would be much harder for me.
