If it is still too rough for your preference, nothing says that you can't knit the sole of the sock in reverse stockinette. Generally, when I knit socks, I use at most a size US1 needle, even is the ball band calls for a 2 or 3.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03509664226326597740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25741243.post-1147247452949305602006-05-10T00:50:00.000-07:002006-05-10T00:50:00.000-07:00Sorry to hear the socks are not comfy because they...Sorry to hear the socks are not comfy because they look absolutely wonderful to me.

I might try the Lorna's Laces Shepherd Sport for socks next (as opposed to Ella), as it really feels soft in my hands.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16597601271517814085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25741243.post-1147003251903287532006-05-07T05:00:00.000-07:002006-05-07T05:00:00.000-07:00sock comfort depends on type and weight of yarn an...sock comfort depends on type and weight of yarn and size of needles. to make it as smooth as possible, some people knit with us000, and hair like yarn.
