Xmas Socks progress (4)

I’ve been working on my sweater more than these socks so far this week, but I still have some progress. This photo really shows off what a mess my needles become when I am in the middle of working on the heels of my socks. Sometimes I will split them onto two separate needles, but usually I leave them like this, and work each sock one at a time while letting the other one hang out. At least it is much easier to do this with the shadow wrap short row heel than it is with a heel flap and gusset. I can do the short rows without turning my work so it means there’s much less chance of everything becoming completely tangled.
