Inverse Unpadded Footlets

IMG_4193

Don’t these look familiar?  I made them once before:

  • I added 6 rounds to the cuff to make this shorty sock a little bit longer (I did that last time, too)
  • I used the same yarns but reversed them
  • I skipped the padding on the heel (I skipped the padding on most of the sole last time; this time it was gone altogether)
  • I replaced the stockinette panel in the heel flap with a slipped stitch pattern
  • I made the cuff stripe and the toe stripe match, at 3 rounds each
  • I used the star toe to finish

I think the lace panel on the heel flap is very attractive but am skeptical that it will hold up well.  Time will tell!
