eye of partridge hell

Is that from the witches book of sock knitting?

“Eye of partridge hell
Toe of asparagus?”

OOOH!! You know fine well what I meant!

Toe of Kitchener stitch hell more like. 

I’m finally getting the hang of it though, I bought stitch markers that lay out the Kitchener so they’re always handy.  Highly recommended.

I’ve started doing a 3-needle cast off for my socks (top down ones).  I can’t see that it feels any different and is a lot less stressful!  And I don’t need to read the instructions every time I do it!  However, if giving them as gifts, I still get out my “How to do Kitchener Stitch” prompt and spend the next half hour or so swearing at it!
