Notes

Love love love this yarn. I didn’t need to do anything fancy, because the yarn is so fun, so I figured I’d do a technique I’ve never done before: the afterthought heel! I have a really high arch, so am always nervous about trying different things, but I have high hopes for this one!

20 rnds of 2x2 rib
45 rnds of leg
60 rnds past heel
5 stockinette rounds before shaping heel

Finished. I knit the foot 5 inches for my size 9.5 feet. I also made the heel a little deeper by knitting 5 rnds of stockinette before shaping. I think next time I will make the heel a little more rounded.
