But why did you need to move the stitches around - where did you have a "problem?" After you turn the heel, on 2 circs the sock is then knit in profile (vs. front and back) and you'll run into the cable - running down the front top of the sock - being split between the two needles...so you may want to move the stitches around at that point so the top is all on one needle and the bottom on the other.

You sock looks fab, too. Great color - is there a reason you switched the needles around? I'm not familiar with this pattern or anything, but I've been eyeballing a few other patterns and noticed how a lot (like Pomotamus) have a purl or a YO at the beg of a needle...are you going to switch them back when you get to the heel, or will you be able to keep working the pattern that way?
