Sometimes printed patterns look fine as they are and sometimes better when mirrored. I decided to make my Bloomin’ socks mirror images and printed the charts in reverse.
I pulled up the leg chart in Photoshop and flipped it so the bloom pattern is reversed. Original chart is at the top and the reversed chart at the bottom.
Then I did the same for the gusset and foot chart. Original chart is at the bottom and the reversed chart at the top.
I might have to tweak the gusset a bit when I begin the decreases but I’m sure everything will work out fine.
And the nine-inch circular needles are a dream!!
Do you prefer identical patterns on both the left and right sock or mitt or would you rather they mirror each other?
