Pathetic!!

This


is a picture of my third sorry attempt to graft the toe on this sock. I thought it was about time to try this, so far I have been using a far easier method (just pull the last 8 stitches together) but I thought the grafted toe looked nice and I know I can do it.

HA! How pathetic am I?? (Off now to my fourth attempt of toe grafting...)

Actually it isn't all that bad! ;) It looks like your purled a stitch that should have been knitted. Grafting isn't that hard (not that I'm an expert at it), my secret is to go hide in my room to graft and do it s-l-o-w-l-y. ;)

Here's an article on the subject:

also another article from the same person:

Hope they help you succeed the kitchener stitch. :)
