I cast on for both feet of this pair of socks in November. November 2006, that is. gulp
I’ve given up on the short-row heel, at least the wrap and turn method. HATE. So I did the next best thing, given I’d had two feet worth of socks. Why rip them out? I didn’t want to make a sole heel flap. Didn’t want to mess with learning a new heel method. Meh meh meh. Just want to knit knit knit and finally finish this pair of socks.
What to do?
Enter the afterthought heel. I can hack that! And it is plain knitting. YEAH.
I’ll add a black 3×3 rib cuff to these, and do the heel in the black, as well.
Only thing… can I fasten off the heel, like you would do with a hat? Or do I need to um. Figure out how to kitchener left handed? Which you know, has gone SO well in the past.
Oh well. Bus knitting! Stockinette! And someday someday, a pair of Seattle socks….
