I turned the heel on my toe-up Jaywalker a few nights ago - I ended up chickening out on doing a heel flap, so I did a trusty short row heel instead. Plus, I knitted the foot up to 1.5 inches from the heel, so I would have had to frog part of my sock to make a heel flap work. No thanks!
The next time I do this pattern, I'm going to knit the sole side in stockinette stitch because I don't like the way the ribs feel on the bottom of my feet.
I think this will be an anklet sock with a picot bind off.
I was actually thinking while reading this about how it would feel to wear these and if you could feel the ribs...
ReplyDeletePURDY!
those look really fun
ReplyDeleteI think I am going to write down the stitch pattern right now and bring it with me to the folk festival in case I get to my trekking XXL socks
