such a heel


Phew! I've finally made it through the heel of my first Komet sock. In hindsight I can see that this heel construction is quite simple and easy, but it took me a few tries to finally get it right. Totally my fault, as usual - skimming instructions and not paying close enough attention. As frustrating as ripping back can be, the frustration was compounded by the bamboo yarn which became unbelievably splitty. Thank goodness that's done ... hopefully the rest of the foot will be smooth sailing.

Looking good! My problems always come from not really reading ahead.
