This video is the step-by-step method of how I close the toes of my Cuff Down Socks.
One can make closing the toe of their sock much easier, if, when the sock is on the machine, we ensure to work at least a single row of knitting before working the toe on a cuff down sock.
I recommend that in the beginning at least, try adding stitch markers after finishing your sock yarn and working two rows of scrap, to the first and last stitches of both the top and the bottom segments (four stitch markers). This prevents those crucial stitches from escaping and being overlooked. I also demonstrate how I remove the scrap from the sock although for this sock I caught the scrap yarn a bit while Kitchenering which caused the removal to be a bit more work than usual.
This is a video with sound. This video is viewable by itself or in with the recent Cuff Down Mock Rib Hung Hem Shortie Sock Video and five page written pattern I released yesterday. Looking for more info? Please see MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS
