I'm actually using 5 needles...:-) I'll try. I'm actually using 5 needles, stitches on 4 and a woring needle. When I do the fairisle sections, I have the sock inside out and yes, I use purl stitch. It's not as tricky as it sounds - you can't see the design of what you've knitted, but you work the current row in relation to the previous row - so a green stitch, say, must be on top of a white stitch, if it isn't there's a mistake to look for. OK. When I work the slip stitch section, I turn the sock right way out and work in knit stitch. I don't usually have to keep turning the sock, it's just that some of the sections had to be done right way out.

And you're going back-to-front in every row of the design? You can see that my brain is clearly mulling over this while I sleep!Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02383223698959645624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5886770962693197798.post-28063922279680459422016-07-15T09:28:44.273-07:002016-07-15T09:28:44.273-07:00Sock it to me!!!!Sock it to me!!!!Jane Eborallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129528958253092545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5886770962693197798.post-27970785701471512402016-07-15T07:44:52.357-07:002016-07-15T07:44:52.357-07:00This is just SO gorgeous!
