Have you made written instructions and diagrams for your subscribers or for sale? I have never knitted socks with a heel flap either by hand knitting or by machine, so I got lost early on trying to follow the videos.
Hi, are the pushers up on the back bed, just as a reference to complete the decreases? I got confused in the beginning where you referenced the pushers in and out of the rail. Also, how do you know to move two or three over for the decrease, is there a formula?
So the gusset decreases are the trickiest part to describe, as they change based on how many stitches your sock is. I used the pushers to make note of which were the gusset & which were the foot top- the foot top has no pushers because they were only used for knitting on the scrap yarn. The principle is that you want to have your decrease on the second needle next to the foot top. Each decrease can have a different number of stitches you move over, and can change which side you switch a needle from the back to the front.
@@motherofallcrafts54 so you also move the far end pusher down after each decrease to make note of where you are, that is so clever!! You really helped me so much, thank you.

Is there a gap in the video between video 4 and video 5?
It picks up right after 4.
