The way I have learned to knit socks is "toe up" on 4 double pointed needles. There are many different ways (so I have been told), but this is the (only) way I know.This first pic is the beginning of the socks. At this point I have moved from the 2 initial needles to 4 needles. I have also already added one stitch per needle. (I was at Tommy's soccer practice when I started them and didn't have my camera, so I didn't get a pic of initial stage).
This is after the toe is complete. I have added stitches at each end, so the toe box slowly gets larger.At this point, I am ready to start the foot of the sock.Now, I have not quite finished half of the foot. I have "ribbed" the top of the sock to give it some stretch. I am also using yarn that has some elastic in it. (I was so glad it was raining yesterday...soccer canceled because of the rain...you can see what I got accomplished while the guys watched football!) I am hoping I can be as productive with my knitting today!
