Happy WWKIP Day!

Happy World Wide Knitting in Public Day WWKIP! I left the gloomy fog behind this morning and headed east to Union Square in San Francisco to knit in solidarity. After ripping out the heel three times on my bright purple "baby cable" sock (my second pair ever!), I finally figured out a way to decrease before making the heel flap so that the heel and gusset will fit my small foot while allowing the sock to fit over my leg. So I worked on the gusset decrease while soaking up the sunshine and chatting with some fellowRavelers.

Knitting this portion of the sock reminds me of rubbing your stomach and patting your head at the same time. I have to remember to do the cable every forth row, but I have to decrease every other row to make the gusset. Lots of things to remember to do at the same time!
