Don't You Just Love Being Organized?











Thank goodness for Ravelry! My fiber arts stuff is finally organized. I've loaded my stash, my needles, my projects, and some of my books and magazines. What a fine community Ravelry is!! It's to this huge organizational effort (and workin', travelin' and readin' Ravelry and blogs) that I owe the long time between posts.

The current project is two socks, toe up, on two circulars. (Let’s call it 2-toe-up-on-2.) I made one sock on two circs a few years ago (just one) but the two at a time and toe up parts are real firsts! I bought Nenah Galati’s Socks II DVD to learn two at a time but her example is done top down with short row heel. In that I've never done a short row heel, I'm not sure that it can be done upside down (I can hear you laughing).

Google rarely lets me down but I'm not finding any guidance for my dilemna there or among my MANY books on sock knitting. Is it safe to assume that one cannot do standard gussets on 2-toe-up-on-2? Is a short row heel the only way? I sincerely hope that one of my many regular readers has an answer... :->
