Two and a half is a textured, top-down sock pattern that works well with any yarn colour.

There are instructions for a new short-row heel with a mini-gusset, and I would be very happy if you give it a try.

It comes in four sizes, and the fabric has more stretch than a vanilla/ stockinette.

There are charted and written instructions.

If you prefer toe-up instead, then just insert the stitch pattern in your favourite toe-up method.

I hope that you like it.

Note, added on 29/12/2020, 8.30 PM, GMT. Just for the aesthetic sake. Because people knit in different styles, this is to ensure that you won’ t get any holes when you work my heel:

When the knit side faces you:
To knit the wrapped yarn, lift it on the left needle with the right “leg” in front of the needle. Then knit it through the back loop.

When the purl side faces you:
Lift the wrapped yarn on the left needle with the left “leg” in front of the needle. Then knit it through the back loop.

Please see the photos on the project page.
