Relaxing Monday!

Today was a nice relaxing day. I did a lot of laundry and some knitting. I’m making good progress on my shawl and I’m doing the increases for the gusset on the heel of the sock.

Since I’ve been knitting, I try to keep things simple. I knit my socks toe up and the gusset heel works best for me. One issue of knitting socks, is holes in the heel area. Some people suggest picking up an extra stitch between needles but that is too much work for me. I’ve discovered a much easier way to prevent heel holes right here: Fleegle No Hole Heel. This is the easiest heel I’ve been able to find. I work my socks on 2 circulars and it is perfect for that.
