could u not knit so fast its kinda hard to cash it lol i am knew at this and i realy like what u do and i want to learn realy bad thank u

@brokenangel231 This is a more advanced sock pattern, so I do skip quickly over the more basic techniques used here. If you're looking for a sock tutorial suited more for beginners, you can try my "Learn to Knit Socks" tutorial. I cover everything you need to get started with socks, and more slowly. :)

Okay, I have done my toe over and pulled out the scrap yarn, knitted the those stitches and it just doesn't look right at all, they slant to the left. Doesn't flow with the other knitted rows, what have I done wrong? again. Can send u photo, what is your private email again?

[verypinkknits]

@NonnaCorsi I can't imagine what you're doing incorrectly, but sending me a photo is a good idea. YouTube won't let me put my email address or website here in the comments, but you know my website is verypink. If you visit the "about me" page, my email address is listed there. It should also be listed in your pattern.

It would be better if she slowed down a bit when she is doing the wrapping and turn. She forgets that the viewer is trying to learn this new technique.

I keep watching these dang ole sock videos.....while I'm working on this monster garter stitch blanket. Socks have always intimidated me. You make it look so easy. Maybe I'll graduate to them one day. Thx for all your videos.

@verypinkknits You are always welcome to get in touch with me with your questions! I do my best to respond quickly so that you can get back to your knitting! :) But it is best to contact me at my email address instead of on YouTube.

[NonnaCorsi]

That was correct but I need to start over, as I pulled my cast on stitches from wrong end, that was weird looking stitches, so I listened, again, to your vids and found that I goofed up! Guess I'll figure the answer to my previous question when I work that part again. Thanks for responding so fast, appreciate it.

@NonnaCorsi I want to better understand your question...you are working from the written pattern, correct? Can you email me privately to my email address or YouTube private message?

[NonnaCorsi]

Can this Toe Up pattern be worked with Magic loop using #5 circs? I really love doing this method from your magic loop lesson and always refer back to your lesson. Your just plain, the BEST!

[NonnaCorsi]

Hi Staci- I'm kinda confused with the Toe, beyond row 14. Not sure is I am to W & T after doing 2? so it would be knit across to one, w & t and then purl. Is this correct or not? thanks

[mchllwoods]

i did the practice socks i was telling u bout but i used the magic loop method cause i didn't feel the need 2 have all those tools 4 something so simple. i also didn't wrap the stitch twice cause it folded just fine w/ just one wrap. so again thanks!
