oh help
So the sock has been growing nicely, the short row heel was fun. But I think I made it a little too soon, and I am worried that even if I rip it out and add another centimeter (or two?) before the heel that there still won’t be enough room in the ankle. It seems like it will be really snug. Is this a feature of short row heels? That they have tighter ankles than a heel flap and gusset? If so what does one do if you have a largish instep or ankle?
Does it look too small to you? I have never seen anyone wearing hand made socks so honestly I am not sure what a well fitting hand made sock looks like. How much are the stitches supposed to stretch before it is too stretched as compared to snug? And will the fit change as I knit more of the leg? Or if it seems a bit short in the foot now should I rip and add more before wasting any more time? I guess I need to go and look at everyone’s pictures of their perfectly fitting socks…
