My boyfriend helped me unravel back to the start of the heel but 21 rows gone was sad. ;) I want this to be the best try at my first sock so I figure wouldn't hurt to unravel them. :) I'll post pictures tomorrow. :) <BR/><BR/>Thanks again!!Natalie Rushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18387944099923242141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6345900002454109633.post-36869652305709729452007-09-22T09:08:00.000-07:002007-09-22T09:08:00.000-07:00Excellent start!

If you pull the 2nd stitch nice and snug it will prevent that nasty ladder.
