    Hello from California. Just found your tutorials and am so pleased that they validate some of the technics I have been using by instinct (totally self-taught). Just finished my second pair of chunky yarn socks and am eagerly awaiting the arrival of some sock yarn to try out the shortie sock. Love your videos and your enthusiasm.

    Hi Denise. This the first of your videos that I have watched. It was awesome! I have been knitting socks for the past several years, and I learned some things from this video that I wii definitely use in future socks!😊. Thank you for doing this and your other videos. I love learning from others and seeing how they do something, because they may have an easier, better way than mine. Thanks. I’m excited to watch the other videos in the series.🙏. Michaeline

    Thank you for your instruction. I love to see you knit real time. It ensures me that I am not as bad at knitting as I feel. I am really getting a lot of practice in fixing my mistakes. Your clear and concise instructions and demonstrations makes it easy for me to see what should be done and why. I finished my 5 th pair of socks. I changed colors on the toe, heel and cuff. The ribbing looks great. I’ll post the picture on Instagram.

    I know I'm late to the party but better late than ever. I'm going to cast on I've knit socks before but I still can't get the heels proper so here I go again. I'm just new with self stripping yarn and I can't wait to build up my stash so I can get all these beautiful colors. Tkx for doing this and I really Enjoy and look forward to your podcasts. Your voice is so soothing. Tkx again 💚 collinsknits

    tried figuring this out on my own and got very close, (used heel yarn for 1st set of pick up instead of yarn for foot! then switched to yarn for foot.) I need to try your weaving technique.

    Denise, I finished my socks and I am so thrilled!! I wanted to ask if you were still planning to do a "2 at a time tutorial". I was able to fumble my way for part of the way but I would love to see how you do it. Thank you again - you are a fantastic teacher!!

    One thing I dislike is picking up stitches. It’s just one thing I’m not very good at. I do like the gusset and slip stitch heel but wish I enjoyed the picking up of stitches more. I did watch your tutorials on that and they were great!

    Hi Laura, Thank you so much for watching! Yes I did cover avoiding the jog in Changing Colors Pt 1: Cuffs, Rounds and Knitting In As You Go. I demonstrate how to lift the leg of the stitch below the row you’re on and knitting the two stitches together. That avoids the jog.

    Thank you🥰, I do have a ?- when you hit the foot, where do you change colour, ( as beginning of round is smack in the middle bottom of the foot,), do you change colour on the side? Thanks you for the tutorial🙂

    You can start on the bottom of the foot or on the side. It's knitters choice.

    Is there a way to do this where you don't cut the original yarn color? I usually use the fish lips kiss heel and I never disconnect the main color when I'm using the contrast color for the heel, that way I can just pick the original yarn back up with less tails to weave in. Now I'm trying a heel flap and heel turn, is there a way to use that same strategy? I tend to use self striping yarn, so I would rather not lose any of the stripe pattern to the ends to weave in. It's not that big of a deal I guess but one of the stripes would be narrower than the rest
