Welcome to our 'Sock Tutorial' collection

One of the most fun things to do is pick up the stitches on a 'Garter Stitch' heel flap. Whilst this can be super daunting, once you know how it's an absolute dream. Today Kay is here to share with you all her tips and tricks for that perfect garter edged heel pick up.

Join Kay as she:

  • Shows you how to pick up the first side of a garter stitch heel flap
  • Demonstrates how to double check your stitches so you know you have picked up the right amount of stitches
  • Talks you through why we pick up an extra stitch in the gap
  • Demonstrates how to pick that stitch up on both sides
  • Shows you how to pick up your stitches on the second side
  • Talks you through how to tidy up your corners once the socks are finished
