Heel Saga

Well, it’s not really a saga yet. Last night I spent the evening working on the Pink Sock heel. I tried out the Garter Stitch Short Row heel found here. I’m not sure yet if I’ll like the garter stitchiness of it. But I definately don’t like the huge gap that happened after I started knitting around. I spent part of today unknitting back to the gap and am going to try to fix it. I think the problem came when the pattern says to “When you are back up to the original 50% of stitches devoted to the heel, knit two extra rows, wrapping the first and last stich of the instep. This will help avoid gaps when you begin working in rounds again.”. I’ll unknit those two rows and try it again and see how it goes. Even though I’m not sure I like the look of the garter stitch heel, it seems very cushy. Prolly very comfortable. No picture.
