Afterthought Heel Tutorial - Getting Started

February 28, 2016

Hopefully this will be helpful for those of you who want to do an afterthought heel but are a bit afraid of picking up stitches and snipping yarn in the middle of an otherwise perfectly functional sock tube. :-) Be brave!

Sometimes, I take pictures of things...

Just finished my first pair of “work socks” here in AL! These have lived in my desk drawer since the start of the year and I get a few rows done when I’m in meetings or debugging code. The stripes matching up after the gusset was 10
Spherical farm animals found in the wild!
New podcast is up! Wherein I only talk about ~one~ project and why I’m going to shift my focus to being a very monogamous knitter for a while. Curious? Links to everywhere you can find it are in my profile. :-)
The body is finished! I kitchenered all 221 stitches of ribbing to the bottom because apparently I hate myself *a lot* but I really like how clean the bottom edge looks.
