I pulled knitting back to try this modified heel; I like it, nicer fit. Thank you.

@lindacantwell8266 10 месяцев назад

I just completed this heel after purchasing your pattern. This is MY NEW FAVORITE!!! What an incredibly easy heel - much easier than the plain shadow wrap heel that is so hard to close the holes!! No holes at all!! I will be watching all your videos - my new favorite teacher!! I think I will need to join your group here.

@barbaram8679 Год назад

WOW! I’m getting ready to knit my heel and can’t wait to do this. Thank you 😊

@sandyrinehart5566 9 месяцев назад

This modification is brilliant, best heel pattern I have seen so far in any sock recipe. Thank you!

@Winkey-crafts Год назад

🙏 definitely going to do this heel in my socks that are on my needles at the moment! Saved the tutorial because I think I want to use this more often.

@dianewassell7693 27 дней назад

I’ve knit many socks with your shadow wrap heel, now top down sock I’m knitting at the moment l’ve done that heel as usual but going to pull it back and follow this modified method. I haven’t had a problem with holes but interested in a better heel fit. Thank you.

@kerfuffle9312 Год назад

This is brilliant! I always knit my socks with the shadow wrap heels and am trying this method now! 👍👏🇨🇦

@susankaman8519 Год назад

I am knitting a pair of toe up socks right now, and I will try this. I think it's going to be my new favorite heel!

@yorkshirenome 3 месяца назад

This is a brilliant tutorial, thank you so much! I wish everyone else's tutorials were as clear and instructive as yours 😅

@dixieeberly2399 6 месяцев назад

Thank you so much for you great tutorial. I used to knit socks on double points. But I have arthritis in my hands and it was getting difficult for me so I switched to 2 at a time on magic loop. I tried a number of different heels and I like your Modified Shadow Wrap technique the best. I’m sold on it.

@juleseast3003 4 месяца назад

Well this is a brilliant heel turning method. Love that it doesn’t make holes. Thank you for sharing this video

@bonniestull1982 Год назад

I just finished mine. I like it. It does the job,but my slip1 knit, pass slip stitch over is very messy. Can you do a knit 2 together there instead? Why is it that one side of a heel looks so much better than the other side? Thank you so much for sharing your videos. You’re a very good instructor and I appreciate them very much so. I learned to knit socks watching RU-vid. Thank you

@dianelakata1308 8 месяцев назад

I have found that also. I am trying different stitches. The SSK didn’t look great either.

@emmaofavalon 8 месяцев назад

I think the intention was to have mirroring decreases, left-leaning decrease on one side and right-leaning decrease on the other side. Try doing a k2tog through the back loop?

@deborahstephenson9490 6 месяцев назад

Does the knit two thru the back loop work? Has anyone tried it?

@rustypatch9543 6 месяцев назад

This is the best sock heel ever. I make one modification in that I do not do the skp but a knit two together through the back loop.

@rosepaul9681 Год назад

Cool, was just ready to start a heel and wanted to check your shadow wrap variation, but saw this. I'm working it now. I was having a problem for a bit with the purl below until I switched to wooden needles. I'm using 2 strands of fingering and knit continental style. Seems to be easier now. Can't wait to see how it looks compared to the shadow wrap heel variation. I have problems with pass stitches over when I have double strands, so might do knit together. We'll see. Thanks for showing this new to me knit below and purl below.

@Winkey-crafts Год назад

Just finished this heel! ❤ love it! It’s my new favorite 😍 🙏🙏🙏

@morningdewdymond1083 6 месяцев назад

Thank you this tutorial. I'm making my second pair of socks, so I'm still trying to figure out what to use for toes and heels. Love this modified shadow wrap heel. It was so easy to do. I think this will be my go-to heel from now on. Much appreciation!!!❤

@joanie9258 Год назад

Great technique! I’m planning my first socks soon and like seeing this technique.

@LATHEANDLOOMPODCAST Год назад

When I taught mused to knit socks I used your shadow wrap videos and never looked back. Having tried other heels I just love the simplicity of it. This is super interesting and I love that it can give a slightly deeper heel. I usually add stitches to do this. I’m knitting my current pair with Regis Pairfect, so may not be able to add in the two interim rounds on this pair but I could imagine you could still use the technique for the turning stitches.🧶

@peggybork5623 Год назад

Thank you so much for sharing this with us all. I used your method on two pairs of socks so far. Is there away to used this heel using a different color for the heel?

@monanelson4286 8 месяцев назад

Beautiful heel 😍 great tutorial and perfectly explained 👏🏻 thank you for showing the details 🙏🏻😘

@lacyalexander8273 Год назад

Excellent! Thank you! Quick question. If I want to use this as a contrasting heel w/o a line of contrasting yarn in front, can I increase two stitches to either side and leave them unworked until the end, then decrease them out like a mini-gusset?

@evelynwald9132 6 месяцев назад

I just finished making the first half of this heel using this technique and I love it. I, for whatever reason, had a difficult time knitting or pearling into the stitch below, so I lifted the leg of the stitch below and it seemed to work out fine. One thing I like to do is move 2 stitches from the front to the left and right side of the heel stitches. That provides 2 stitches that I can knit when I go around the full sock as it seems to give me better tension between the final twin stitches and the front stitches of the sock. (I like to work on DPN’s so it’s very easy for me to distribute stitches). A question, do you have any tips on how to maintain a nice tension with the twin stitches when making and or resolving them? Your work always looks so perfectly even. Thanks for sharing this technique! Very helpful.

@stitcherscottage Месяц назад

Wow you make this so easy. Wonderful video. Does knitting around the instep help make it not so tight?

@bonniestull1982 Год назад

Can you do a knit two together instead of the slip knit Passover?

@thechillydog Год назад

It will give you a slightly different look, but it will work.

@pokagal7335 Год назад

Chilly Dog, thank you so much! I love this heel. Would it be possible to use the pigeon stitch on the back of the heel? I like the thickness because I normally wear boots with my wool socks. Another question: do you have a pattern for boot socks and/or hiking socks?

@thechillydog Год назад

If you are familiar enough with the stitch pattern you like, I imagine that you could incorporate it into your sock (remembering you still have to do something special with the turning stitches). A different stitch will likely change your gauge though, so the second half of the shaping may be larger/smaller than you want. You can find all of my sock patterns here, shop.thechillydog.com/collections/socks. I wear all of my socks for just about every informal activity (running, hiking, walking, every-day wear around the house...) so I'm not sure what exactly what different characteristics you're looking for in a hiking sock unless you mean a heavier weight of yarn.

You are WONDERFUL 💐

@cindychristensen5894 Месяц назад

I absolutely loved this video and love the heel. I have a question, however. I did my heel in a different color and so how would I do those two complete rounds to avoid getting a hole? I lucked out because the color of my next stripe happened to be the same purple as my heel so I was able to do the instep, but I’m just wondering how you do it if you have different colors? P.S. I am joining your Plus membership today! I’ve been watching you for a while and you are just incredible!!

@thechillydog Месяц назад

Off the top of my head, I don't know how you would be able to add the 2 extra rounds for a contrasting color heel without A) ending up with a lot of yarn tails or B) getting an odd contrasting band of color across the top of the foot. 🤔

@lindacantwell8266 11 месяцев назад

I've been knitting the shadow wrap heel for all my socks, but I have trouble closing the hole. I want to knit this heel into my current sock as soon as I finish the leg. I need to get your pattern though because I need to study it further because I am 77 years old and need to relearn how to knit this.

@catherinekhalili4412 5 месяцев назад

I just finished one sock and used Herman short rows and found it fiddly. I’ll try this on the second sock.

@corgikat21 5 месяцев назад

I just purchased your pattern and am looking forward to trying this heel. I think it will be perfect for my higher instep. Can this method be used for top down socks?

@thechillydog 5 месяцев назад

Yes. You can work it in either direction.

@corgikat21 5 месяцев назад

@@thechillydog Thank you for your quick response! I can’t wait to finish my current socks on the needles to try this pattern!

@monanelson4286 7 месяцев назад

I just finished my modified short row heel, but had a gap in the corners and it was loose . And wondering, is it possible to do the triple stitch method like you taught in your other shadow wrap heel ? Would it be better to do, to make a tighter heel join? And then how and when would you do the triple part?

@MidwestStitches Год назад

Do you find that this shadow wrap method makes the heel less pointy on the sides? That is what I don’t like about the shadow wrap heel and I’m not sure if there is any way to fix or modify that to make it more rounded around the heel

@juleseast3003 10 месяцев назад

Really want to try this because I always get holes. Can this be worked using a contrast colour for the heel?

@lindsypenney3064 Год назад

When knitting Garter Stitch, would I simply work a K1B at each turning stitch and resolve each shadow wrap as such?

@sharonweitendorf1712 Месяц назад

Will this technique work with a contrast color heel or stripes?

@rosepaul9681 Год назад

I do have a question about knitting 2 stitches together rather than slip, knit, pass. Do they lean a certain direction? Is that why you are choosing to use that method to resolve the twin stitch on the knit side? Thanks in advance.

@thechillydog Год назад

Yes, the decreases on each side slant in towards the center of the heel. I just think it looks a little nicer with how the turning stitches are made.

@asharp6591 9 месяцев назад

Thanks!

@christenagervais7303 Год назад

How would you do this with a contrast colour?

@lenamd100 Год назад

Sorry, I'm using google translator. I can tell how I do it. In the heel of a contrasting color, leave the two extreme loops free. Then wait for the loops to use the boomerang in the second stage of the heel.

@lenamd100 Год назад

That moment when you need to knit in a circle, these side loose loops will allow you to turn in the opposite direction. You can apply any method to them - German, wrap a loop or as in this video.

@christenagervais7303 Год назад

@@lenamd100 Thank you! 🙏

@wheredonnaknits3696 Год назад

Awesome. I imagine this could be used for the toe as well?

@debbiedegayner3312 Год назад

Does this fit feet with high insteps better than the original?

@elainebos Год назад

Do you have written instructions for this heel?

@thechillydog Год назад

Yes. This video was created for my Duck Pond Socks pattern, shop.thechillydog.com/products/duck-pond-socks-knitting-pattern-pdf, and the pattern includes written instructions for the heel.

@amandas.439 Год назад

How is this different from regular twin stitches? I am still new and trying to understand 😊

@thechillydog Год назад

The regular twin turning stitches are closely related to lifted increases. For this version the turning stitch is related to a median increase (sometimes known as a k1 below or p1 below).

@michelestephenson2702 8 месяцев назад

Is this a good heel for a high instep?

@thechosenvoice3472 6 месяцев назад

I usually have to add a little gusset in order to be comfortable. I have a high instep and hate it when it is tight. I think this modified version is better than the usual shadow wrap, but I plan to add a gusset as usual anyways
