When it comes to knitting socks, you have a lot of choices. There is the toe, the leg, the Heel flap, and the Kitchener stitch. It is possible to find the perfect sock pattern for your needs. While you are waiting, you might want to try knitting some socks.
Leg
The leg of socks is the portion between the heel and the end cuff. This section can be knit in many styles, including plain stockinette or fancy lace. To determine how long your leg should be, measure from the anklebone to the point on the leg.
The leg of a socks covers the entire length and ends at the ankle. It also covers the heel, which are the cup-shaped pockets that fit snugly around each foot's heel. The L-shaped shape of the heel is most common. The heel connects with your foot via a Gusset. It should fit the arch.
Heel flap
The heel flap in socks is an extra bit of knitting at the foot. It usually measures between two and three inches in length, and is turned so that it rests flat against the foot. This flap is created using the short rowing technique. This means that you knit back and forth, without having to go to the end. You knit one stitch to the heel flap edge and one stitch to the next, so you will have about 16 to twenty stitches.
The heel flap consists of small tubes of knit stitches which gradually shrink until the sock fits around the ankle. There are several tricks you can use to make this stitch easier, but the most important one is not to over-stitch any heel flap stitches. This will make them flimsier to pick up and will not compromise the durability of the heel.
Kitchener stitch
Kitchener stitch refers to a grafted stitch which mimics the tension of your knitting. This stitch can be done with two needles: one for each side and one for each end. Start by slipping the first stitch of the front needle through the first stitch on the back needle and pulling the yarn through.
The working yarn will be on your right hand. It comes from the rightmost stitch of the back needle. Cut the working wool to a length that's comfortable to use. Thread a tapestry needle with the remaining yarn tail. Start knitting on needle one, and move onto needle two. Turn the needle purlwise through the first stitch on the left front needle.
