The yarn is terrific. It really shows off the garter heel.

I did that heel and actually like the way it looked the first time. The second time I blew it. What is it about that technique that drives me mad? Yours looks fab!

That heel is such a great one for variegated yarn. Love it!

I have Nancy’s book yet have never read it bug I discovered you little trick from my Sole Solution software. It gives and option of standard/narrow/wide heels and the wide is usually about one inch of unworked stitches (sole solution uses wrapped short rows, I use YO short rows but the “essence” is the same)
Thanks for the compliments on the Ribby ‘rents
They loved em and were so surprised!
Your comment about the temp was cute but it’s true! Altho I’m a native I didnt grow up here. When I moved back about 15 years ago, I was swimming outdoors in January,now I wouldn’t be caught dead near a pool til May!

The shallower heels never seem to fit as well for me. Lovely heel!

The sock and the heel look great! So tell us – how does 1/4 of the stitches compare to 1″ of stitches in this particular yarn – more, less?
