Tag: Toe-Up Heels

Toe-up heels are a key feature of toe-up sock knitting, offering flexibility in fit and design.

Knitting socks from the toe up allows you to try them on as you go, ensuring a perfect fit and making the most of your yarn. Whether you prefer a snug heel or extra room, mastering toe-up heels will take your sock knitting to the next level!
