According to Wikipedia, a charade is a sham, pretense, a game, a movie, a song, a French auto-racing track, a car, or a fictional character. However, to me, Charade is a pair of socks
I’m using my last skein of the Old Knittery Merino Cashmere 4ply Sock yarn and I really enjoy knitting this pair of socks. Most importantly, this pair is a perfect fit and it’s so comfortable, and easy to pull it over the my heels!! This will definitely be my favourite pair for now
(until a better pair comes along).



Although there’s a bit of pooling on the greens and blues around the leg sections of both socks , I don’t really mind it that much. I think they’re pretty cool
and unique.
Pattern: Charade by Sandra Park
Yarn: 1 skein of The Knittery 4ply Sock: Merino Cashmere (OLD)
Needles: 2.5 mm and 2.75 mm
At the moment, I have another WIP going on but got stuck halfway. If anyone of you can shed some light, that will be very much appreciated. I’m currently knitting Wendyknit’s Double Eyelet Rib Socks and I’m not too sure what I should do next.
I’ve just finished turning the heel on Row 8 on the double eyelet rib socks pattern. Next section read:
Needle now holds 63 stitches. On RS, knit to end of needle, knitting each wrap together with the stitch it wraps, Work across the instep stitches.
Heel flap: Work back and forth on heel stitches:
Row 1 (RS): K 47 (knitting each wrap together with the stitch it wraps), ssk, turn
Row 2: sLip 1, p 31, p2tog, turn
Row 3: [Slip 1, k1] 16 times, ssk, turn
Now my question is, after I finished Row 8, I’m halfway in the RS row. Do I knit all the stitches on the RS to the end and then purl all the stitches on the WS to start Row 1 of Heel flap??? Please advise.

You knit to the end of your needles & also knit across the pattern (instep)stitches (so you have completed a round. Then start your heel with row 1 (which will be on the right side). Hope this helps & if not, give me a call. Good luck.
