Jarbo sock yarn in Egypt
I can't believe it , I actually found sock yarn in Egypt ๐๐ , the seller and the store owner are ignorant , I almost had heard attack every time I touch acrylic ๐, and I can not describe the look on their faces when I asked if there is another yarn 75%wool 25% nylon , it was like I speak hieroglyphs๐๐ ,Thank god they let me go around and read labels on each yarn in the store , I'm so hungry for knitting socks , if I liked the yarn I will go back and purchase the remaining 6 skein (from the same color, I have no choice) and knit different patterns , wish me luck with this yarn

Kitchener stitch
You should understand it and then it will be incredible easy , basically every stitch must have knit and purl stitch in it , so the front needle have purl then knit , the back needle have knit then purl , so the first two stitches FN purl and leave it and BN knit and leave it , then start your repeat , FN knit off needle and purl the next and leave it , BN purl off the needle and knit the next abd leave it ( knit off purl , purl off knit) and the last two stitches , FN knit off, BN purl off , once you understand the concept you will never look to the instructions and just do it while watching TV
