I finished the sockettes on Saturday night, but even though I bound off loosely, they wouldn’t fit over my heel. Which means they wouldn’t fit Grandma.

So…. I undid the bind-off and tried a loose crochet bind-off. Didn’t work. Undid that, and tried a very loose sewn bind-off. It helped, but not very much.

Clearly, I needed something more drastic. But what? I decided to tink 5 rows for some needed yarn, and then did two rows of tubular stockinette and grafted these two sides together. It’s actually too big for me (but then I have small ankles), so I think we’ve finally got it.

Tomorrow, I’ll finish the other sock! :)
