Greetings from the Woods of New Hampshire!

I’m on a mission to fill every sock drawer in the world with beautiful, hand-knit socks!! I felt the only way to achieve this mission was to design socks that EVERYONE could feel successful at knitting.

I do realize that turning a heel and knitting a gusset aren’t the worst things in the world, (in fact, some knitters really enjoy that step,) but I’ve always dreaded it and it was the one thing that prevented me from knitting all the socks.

What exactly are the BENEFITS of knitting Magic Heel Socks?
I’m so glad you asked!

1. No finicky heel means these socks are a complete joy to knit, especially for beginner or nervous sock knitters!
2. Knit cuff-down, (but easily adjustable to be knit toe-up).
3. They’re ideal if you’re using self-striping yarn because your stripes will be uninterrupted.
4. They’re perfect for fast-growing children’s feet because they’re quick to knit and the heel can accommodate multiple sizes.
5. They make the best gift knits, especially when you’re not exactly sure what size feet your recipient has. The perfect way to keep them a surprise!
6. When your socks finally wear out, you can easily mend them by cutting your sock, (just above or below the worn area) picking up the live stitches and then re-knitting your sock down or up. You’ll get twice as much wear out of your Magic Heel socks this way.
