Can you do me a favour, look at my reply about the folksocks pattern
problem, which is the\ subject line, with the url to my photo album showing
the graph. Only I am finding it hard to explain how this works....I think
you'll probably explain it better...

I think she is seeing the Y shape on the graph and thinking it is stitches
moved over or something, the graph just shows the natural move of the
pattern at the V part of the graph (top of Y)as the shaping is done....would
you mind looking at my message reply please? I'd hate to muddle her up
further..

Cheers.........Cher

Well, if you read the chart literally and don't place it into the
context of the natural sock shaping it might look as if one is to move
the clock over. I think the OP has figured it out tho.

Those socks were a b*tch for me to knit, but not because of the
pattern. The first yarn I tried to use didn't want to be those socks
- or socks at all for tht matter. The second attempt produced
putatively identical socks that weren't size-matched mates. *shrug*

Of course, I did have to abandon a perfectly good email account...

Well if she is sorted that is fine then....I can't quite understand what is
wrong with the pattern, so thought I'd ask you.....lol

cheers.....Cher

I don't think anything is "wrong" with it, merely an alternate
interpretation that produced some unexpected results

LOL.....omg isn't it odd how we do this sometimes...you can achieve some
interesting patterns through mis reading an original though...

I think she's reading the gusset pattern as an instruction to
literally move the clock over on every round, instead of reading it as
"oh, I'm decreasing the gusset so the clock is moving naturally". Its
that whole literal versus intuitive thing

so how do we stop her doing that so that it is all correct and in order?I
tried to explain that, but until you actually see where you are going adrift
it is hard to change what you initially believe to be right...

*grin* I thought I saw that the original poster who had asked about this
pattern had figured it out by herself? ;o)
