Product Description
I wanted to put out a pattern for a square heel for those that love to knit striped socks but prefer the way a heel flap and gusset fits. This type of heel uses a square turn and will disrupt the stripes less then a triangle heel turn does, because the gusset isn’t as deep. This is a Good Heel For Self-Striping Socks, but totally a good heel for all socks.
This sock is knit from the top down on magic loop. Needle 1 is the front of leg and top of foot, needle 2 is the back of leg, heel and bottom of foot. It has a heel flap, square heel turn, gusset and a wedge toe.
Tall sock sample knit size 5 with Gauge Dyeworks ‘Bowling Ally’ 92g. Shortie sock sample knit size 3 with Knit Picks Felici ‘Playhouse’ 32g for MC and Knit Picks Stroll Fingering ‘Dove Heather’ 9g for CC.
