    Dove, that has been the worst pattern I’ve ever done. It’s going in the bin. Never again! 😏

    @Pat E  have you ever tried knitting them from the toe upwards?  https://arnecarlos.com/pattern-for-the-easiest-sock-in-the-world/

    @Pat E  it's the one in the link ... I've not tried it ... the heel looks a bit complex but it says it's not.  

    Just been out there cutting a lettuce and washing it for supper ... thought I'd do it before I put the sprinkler on that patch.  I've also picked and blanched a load of mange tout for freezing.  Even when you try to do successional sowing, with the warm weather we've had everything catches up  :)

    I’ve had a quick look. It seems similar, but I think my worst bit was using 5 needles and trying to get my hand around it. My pattern starts at the top. 🤪

    I quite like knitting with five needles occasionally ... I know ... I'm odd oops
