I would like a bit more info on “partial rounds.” I know it means an incomplete round like short rows, but can’t picture how this would happen. Is the knitting turned so one is working on the wrong side? Does it involve wrap and turns? Does it risk leaving a hole? Other than that, I am keen to give this a try. The heel looks lovely and squishy.
Hiya! A partial round in this context doesn’t involve turning the work. It just moves where the start of round or row will be. So there is no hole or need to wrap and turn or anything like that. It’s just a case of moving the marker so that things line up correctly.
