KIK Meeting – Afterthought Sock Heel

The afterthought heel is a term coined by the late Elizabeth Zimmerman in her “Knitting Without Tears” book. The heel is knitted after the leg and foot of your sock are completed. It’s a great technique to know for working heels in a contrasting color.

At our July meeting, Irene Piatek will teach us how to knit this heel.

* Details of your homework assignment will be forthcoming prior to our meeting.
