I have resisted knitting socks for a long time. I finally broke down and made a pair following the Craftsy class for making a pair of Bosnian slipper socks. They were too big.
I then had a chance to take a class with Cat Bordhi and got the sock recipe. I started out following her direction and have gotten to the heel decrease and they are again too big.
You can see that the length of the sock is already at my heel so no way no how will these fit. I had a total of 60 stitches knitted on a US 1 so I'm going to have to rip back and see if 54 stitches will do the trick.
I'm really hoping that once I figure this out, socks will be easier and not so frustrating to knit.
Try Dave's Toe Up Sock Cookbook available as a free download to Ravelry members. It uses your row and guage count and your foot measurements to write the pattern. Works every time for me.
