WIP Wednesday: Turning the Heel


I'm turning the heel on not one, but TWO socks!

The first is my Garter Rib socks in the Superman inspired Yarn of Steel colorway. And the second is the My Little Pony inspired Princess Celestia colorway. My favorite part of sock knitting, aside from finishing a pair, is turning the heel and the gusset decrease. It's the point where the knitting actually takes the shape of a sock instead of just a tube. It never ceases to make me feel clever that I can turn a heel. Also it's great because it feels like it's the halfway point of knitting the sock. And everything after it seems to go much quicker and smoother.
