Thank you so much for the post!!! I am working on my first pair of socks and this has been a tremendous help. I kinda thought this was the way it should have been done but you have confirmed it. Thanks for sharing!

As I am in the middle of trying to figure out how to make a damn short row heel look OK (and reknitting it over and over again), I can’t wait to move back to the heel flap/turn heel method on my next pair of socks. The only socks I’ve ever knit so far all had the heel-flap type of heel, and I didn’t know how easy I had it until I started on these *(&*&%^%$$& short rows.

Thanks for the advice – I’m knitting my first stocking and was getting really thrown off the remaining stitches. Perfect timing on the post, and you’re right – it sounds a lot more complicated than it is.

It’s sort of amazing, isn’t it? If I go on a sock knitting binge, I may end up with a whole bunch of “sock-u-lators” each calculating a different sock heel.

I do like the ones I already knit. Still, short rowed heels are easier.
