How’s your Soctober going? Check out this short-row heel tutorial. Very useful! I’ve done short-row heels before but I didn’t do her trick of double-wrapping as you go back and forth picking up the wraps. I also especially like the tip of wrapping the first non-heel stitch to keep a hole from forming. (I always get that hole.) I’m going to be doing socks all summer, I think. (Link courtesy of Lara.)
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

This is how I always do them – these are the instructions that Wendy gives (without the pics)>Neat and tidy. I also pick up strands between the stitches in the corners and knit together them with existing stitches to prevent those holes in the corner.
