Knitting socks on CN, Somehow made a mistake and am not knitting in garter stitch after heel was knit, help!?
Okay, So i am currently making my first set of socks on 2 circular needles with Worsted Weight yarn, I am following a pattern which goes:
K2 P2 Ribbing until desired cuff length is acquired
Start on heel:
row 1: Sl 1 Kn1
row 2: Sl1 Purl across
Repeat until u have a square.
After that you turn the heel, and start on the gusset and u knit across instep.
Once i start knitting across the instep is when i notice the problem, I am now for some strange reason getting garter stitch on the Right Side, and i can't turn it inside out because the heel has been knit already! where did i make the mistake? what am i doing wrong? any help would be greatly appreciated, sorry for the long note.
I work on one sock at a time.
I usually do socks two at a time on one long circular needle. If I remember correctly from the last time I did socks on two circular needles, one of the needles holds the heels and the other needle holds the insteps.
If you haven't left out any steps in the instructions you posted, you would have a tube of K2P2 ribbing when you start working on the heels. To work on the heels, you work on just the first circular needle and work back and forth over both socks, correct?
When you finish turning both heels, you will be at the LEFT side of the first circ and you will have picked up the required number of stitches on the LEFT side of the first heel flap for a gusset, then knit across the second heel flap and picked up the required number of stitches on the LEFT side of the second heel flap. You then will knit across the insteps on the second needle. At that point, you are back at the RIGHT side of the first heel. You will pick up the required number of gusset stitches from that side of the heel flap. Next, you knit across half of the stitches left from turning the heel--to the center of the heel--and place a marker (from this point, all "rounds" start at that marker). You finish knitting the stitches of that heel and then pick up the required number of stitches from the RIGHT edge of the second heel flap. Again, you'll knit half of the stitches from the second heel and put a marker for the "starting point."
How you shape the gussets will depend on the instructions you have.
What I suspect you may have done was to pick up the gusset stitches on the incorrect side of the heel flap. If that's the problem, rip out your stitches back to the stitches that are left after you turn the heel. Make sure that you have the RIGHT (public) side of the heel flap facing your and that you knit one more row so that you are in position to pick up those gusset stitches on the LEFT edge first, followed by the instep, followed by picking up gusset stitches on the RIGHT edge last.
