Jaywalker Update

I've been making good progress on the sock. As you can see from this poorly focused photo, I'm getting ready to make the heel flap. However, there's something bugging me about the pattern, which has to do with symmetry. It calls for you to work 38 stitches for the heel flap. Now, if you start with the first stitch being the one where the double decrease is done, you will end up with the last stitch being next to the double decrease stitch. I love symmetry and this really throws me off my game plan.

What I'm thinking of doing is to just go ahead and include that double decrease stitch, to make up a total of 38 stitches, then knit two stitches in the middle so you're back to the requisite stitches. After turning the heel, make a new stitch so you're now back where you should be with regards to number of stitches.

I seem to recall a blog entry somewhere that has a compilation of modifications to the Jaywalker patterns. If only I could remember which blog it was . . .
