Crochet Socks

I've been meaning to try my hand at crochet socks for a long time. When Rohn Strong shared his socks patterns in an issue of Simply Crochet I had to race out and pick up a copy. Sadly, it takes several weeks for UK magazines to make their way across the Atlantic. I did manage to get my copy, though. I grabbed some sock yarn from Knit Picks and my Clover hook and got started.

This is what happens when you fail to follow the instructions. You end up thinking you have made progress but have to rip back a bunch of rows. I was not deterred, however.

I got back to hooking and made it back to the point where it is time to turn the heel. Now I have to learn how to turn the heel on a crochet sock. Wish me luck!

I should pick up a copy of Rohn's book Step Into Crochet: Crocheted Sock Techniques--from Basic to Beyond!
