I'm starting the toe decreases on a sock and no matter what I do I get this little pucker at the side. Almost as if the sock is being knit

for someone who has a bunion. Any ideas how to get rid of that poochy bit?

I bet when you put it on your foot you'll never notice it.

that's not very good advice, but I belong to the 'just knit it until it looks good on' school of knitting.

You're right. But I can't help but wonder why does it happen? I'm weird like that.
