The Andersson Heel 2

I did the heel slightly differently for the second sock. I increased for the gusset every 3rd row instead of every other-ie with 2 rows between increases. I also added garter stitch borders to the heel part - I knit 3 sts in Knit before and after each slip stitch. When you sl1 you knit the next 3 sts no matter if you are on a knit row or a purl row).

What a beautifully knit sock. I will have to Google The Andersson Heel (with modifications) on one of my future socks.

Best of luck with selling your sweater designs on eBay.

That's a really nice heel Colin, I enjoyed looking at it on your blog.
Your pictures of Germany are really nice too. So picturesque.
