I found these socks very easy to make. They were my first pair and the pattern was clear and simple to follow. I was initially quite apprehensive about knitting socks as the heel and gusset really confused me, but it was really straightforward when I actually got down to it.

I did have a bit of difficulty picking up enough stitches along the gusset on the first sock though. I didn’t know which stitch was the first one I slipped, so on the second sock, I placed a stitch marker on the first slipped stitch on either side of the heel and it made the process much easier!

I still need to work on getting a tight stitch at the base of the gusset though. I keep getting a fairly noticeable gap/hole and it’s annoying!
