If you want to fix those lovely socks, you might try threading narrow elastic on a needle and running it though the stitches above the heel and 1/2 way around the ankle, just to snug it up at that point so it won’t slip down as easily. Beautiful socks!

Pretty socks! I find when the heel is too SHALLOW it slips off the heel. I solved this by adding a small gussett and flap to my yo short row heels.

Hope this helps, email me if you want more info :)

Very cute. I was instructing a psychiatrist at work on how to knit socks :p Actually, picking up the heel stitches, my worst area!

Ah, the satisfaction of a job well done. I’d like some of that.

Big needles are hard to use, I agree(esp. the oversized, like 15s).

Those are quick socks. They look great, too. I hope she grows into them nicely.

Very cute! Um, I don’t know if the heel would be too narrow or too wide… A wiser socknitter than I will have to weigh in.
