Hi! Thank you for watching & commenting 🥰 Twirlability is such an important skirt factor 💁‍♀️

Hey there! I love how your skirt turned out-the twirl factor is truly 10/10 🤩 I appreciate all of your thoughts. I hope things can get a little lighter for you.

So your saying it’s easy?

Thank you for sharing your review on this heal. I appreciate your honesty.

Thank you for that insider's reference to "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," where "42" is the answer to Everything! Your video is Perfection! I hope that your child is now learning how to knit. Thank you!

Five pages just to knit a heel! NO! I am not going there doing that one!

I dislike the narrow center of shaped heel. It is designed for a more narrow foot. I have a medium foot. My own ratio for decrease/increase is 1/4 - 1/2 - 1/4 (yielding wider unshaped center) compared with ugly 1/3 - 1/3 - 1/3. The fishlip is homely& this matters to me. I tried this technique multiple times and glad to be aware but won’t use it much.

I don't like the bumpy in the inside. Thanks for showing that. I can't stand something like that on my feet. But you did a wonderful job. Thanks for the review.

$1 for an excellent resource for sock knitting, and bargain I say.

Cat`s Sweet Tomato Heel is a great option. It consists of wedges with gently sloping sides.

Lol. Definitely don't read these comments. But I appreciate the veiw point. I'm a new sock knitter trying out different heels to see what I like. The lack of visuals available online for this is a huge deal breaker for me right now, but I might try the pattern out after trying out the shadow wrap heel and getting better at reading patterns in general.

Nice job! Beautiful shawl!

We got each other ☺️

Cecilia, it's so good to hear your voice/see your face. I forgot I was subscribed to you! You might remember me from back in blog days 12ish years ago. (Abby-ravelry is also LongRideHome). I laughed at the whole "vision I have of myself wearing this sweater I'm making". Romanticizing knitting/crocheting is totally what keeps me coming back to it again and again over the years.

Great review there - I share your sentiments!

So raw, so well done kiddo...as good and profound as any pop grunge bullshit with millions promoting them.

What is froging???

After watching a video on FLK it looks similar to the shadow wrapped heel

Hey I miss your vids :)

Very nice. I hope you're doing well

These comments make me feel disappointed in humanity. Apparently no one knows how to read /:

Yay Cece!!

Your review is helpful and HILARIOUS. LOL

I need a visual with the lip kiss I couldn’t figure it out as a first time sock knitter

I think you should give this Fish Lips Kiss technique a bit more trying cause I have actually tried every type of heel in my 40 years of knitting except the afterthought...and this one is perfect IMHO. This technique has changed my life cause I can knit pretty mindlessly...and rarely have to count stitches since they are always the same after the toe...unless I am making for someone that needs a wider cuff due to the calf muscle on long socks. I knit socks every day. I knit 2AAT and toe up. I hate making 1 sock and then I have to look forward to the next sock before I get satisfaction. I have done this fish lip kiss heel for many years now and I initially had some issues with the fit because I simply didn't understand a few things about the pattern. First...I tried to adapt my OLD way of determining stitches per my old patterns...and as a result I was making socks that were actually too wide cause I thought per the OLD way that I was a large size (8 1/2 shoe) and then thought I must use 60-64 stitches...and once thru with the toe increases...there was slack with the cardboard pattern. I did not understand that the pattern MUST be used not just for determining the time to start the heel. IT is very important that one use that toe line...and NOT increase stitches past that point reguardless if you think it is too small...if you have a normal shaped foot. This means I do not need a "large" sock. I use 28+28 for sport weight (Kroy) and 30-30 or 32-32 for fingerling. The beginning toe cup just barely touches the toe line and is tight. By doing that...I get a sock that fits fairly snug on the pattern thru the widest part of the foot. I stretch the sock gently till it touches the heel line for toe up...then start the twin stitches. My socks now fit snug and don't get so saggy like they did when I use the old method of sock math and book patterns. No uncomfortable thick heel flaps. I worried at first this would be the weak point since it is not thicker like some flaps using special stitches but I have not yet had any sock heel fail me after years of wearing some of my pairs of socks. I tried using reinforcing thread/yarn at first with this technique but found it a pain doing the twin stitch technique AND I didn't like the feel. So I just save my scraps just in case I might need to darn a sock but so far never have with this tech. I finally had my son make me a 3 D printed pattern from my cardboard cut out...marked it per the pattern and it is stiff and thicker...making it perfect for fitting a sock snug. Try it a couple of times before giving up on it. I use it for mostly plain socks but use it also for cables and lace patterns.

2:24 I disagree that the FLK heel is "bumpy" on the inside. I believe all short row heels will have some kind of a diagonal stitch line on the inside but I've tried several methods and the FLK is the smoothest on the inside of any I've tried. I think the inside of the FLK is beautiful and very comfortable (as you say yourself).

best spent buck on the net. It's unfortunate you didn't feel the same.

I don’t this it is appropriate to call the Sox Therapist a “liar.” sadly I won’t be following you There is little new under the sun they say, but ST has put a lot of energy and time into explaining the heel. Amazingly you describe the sox as a very good fit, what more can you ask for….sad sad sad, try to stay for flattering in the future, it doesn’t reflect highly of you.

That’s a very cute book!

$i.00 is a small price to pay for all the effort the creator put into developing her technique. Instead of charging a large amount of money and having many people "cheat" her out of what she has earned, she chose to charge a small amount and hopes people will be honorable. I think she is doing a good thing.

I paid a $1 for this pattern and I had to go to tutorial .....for me most of these pages a waste .....and I’m finding hard to understand how to continue finishing heel .....thought I would be getting a whole pattern (sock)

Great review, I agree....I prefer toe up with regular gusset increase, and use either heel flap and short row.....no picking up....nor holes. Thanks.

I liked your video.

Hee-hee I win $55.00 free shipping on eBay Great video, awesome baby sweater

Thanks for reminding me that I’m fat I’m done trying

This was very useful! Thank you.

Please come back gypsy mama 💓

8 minutes in and you haven’t said anything of substance yet. Now you have heartburn?! Don’t give up your day job.

I've discovered how to do German Short Row heels and you can do the heel as a toe but requires a provisional cast on. I like the method. May try the FLK heel next. But like you for just a technique, I balk at buying the pattern though I have thought about it. I've only bought a few patterns on Ravelry, most look to find patterns for free. Hard to make ends meet and prices keep going up on yarn. Michaels and Joann are not giving the discounts that count for much the last couple of weeks. But I am hooked on socks now and have made my winter socks, now I can explore other fibers than wool and nylon. Loved your video, you have so much personality. Did you have a boy or a girl?

Easy sock? No way. for someone who has never done a sock it does not tell you what to do? Just says "when your ready to do the heel" So what do we do when we are ready? very poor patter. Very disappointed!

You paid for the TECHNIQUE, not a pattern. Just like you pay for education.

Thank you so much for this review. I contemplated buying this this pattern for almost a year before I gave in and that is only because of all the hype on the internet about it. I am glad it was only a dollar because, after purchasing the FLK pattern, I began "researching" heels on UA-cam and discovered it was just a short row heel with a twin stitch or shadow stitch. I had never heard of either of these stitches until I purchased the pattern and then started researching and comparing short row heels and how to knit them. I did actually read the entire 16 pages and found it interesting but not necessary for knitting a heel that fits perfectly. After reviewing many videos, some twice and three times, and discovering that the twin stitch or shadow stitch IS NOT exclusive to the FLK heel, I learned that it is just another "version" of a short row heel using that particular stitch. Even Arne of Arne Carlos uses the twin stitch and there is a video thats so close to FLK that I thought it was. The written pattern is not confusing at all. It is very thorough and descriptive. I read it completely through a couple of times and then started the heel and worked it quite easily using the pictures for the first couple of rows. I am not sorry that I spent a whole dollar on this particular heel pattern because when one is learning to knit socks and studying the many different ways to construct a sock, the pattern is a good one and comparable to the many others using the twin/shadow stitch. It is also nice to have a written pattern with pictures. Had I not purchased the pattern, I might not have been as curious about the many ways of knitting short row heels, not to mention wraps and turns and then comparing short rows to flaps and gussets. PLUS, the cut out is cool and handy and the little bit of math is helpful when learning how to measure for socks. I think it was $1.00 well spent for an inexperienced sock knitter like me for the pattern itself but also because is prompted me to look into all the different types of heels and how to knit them. Some heels are better than others for different uses. I don't particularly NEED to do a sturdy heel for myself but the "Eye of Partridge" stitch looks really interesting and I would like to try it some day which means I will have to do a top down sock even though I prefer Magic Circle Toe Up TAAT. I am a plain sock knitter as well because the yarns are so pretty and socks look fabulous without patterns. Buying the pattern not only gave me instructions in hand to read and refer to plus a cardboard cut out, it gave me the incentive to research sock knitting techniques, construction, and reviews including other peoples' experience and opinions. I now have a much better idea of how I want to knit my socks and the idea that not all socks have to be knit the same way. I can experiment with different techniques. But most of all, socks don't have to perfect. After listening to so many sock knitters talk about their socks, I am more encouraged than ever to keep knitting socks and to try different ways of constructing them.

Not judging the clubhouse but definitely judging you how rude of you to call this woman who gave us all these tutorials for one dollar and for you to call it stupid and all she’s a liar makes me wonder who stupid hopefully enough people will dislike you that we won’t have to hear from you again and I hope your unborn child and hear all your ranting and Raving on somebody who was being very helpful clearly you were not

Great review. I wish I had seen it before I spent the dollar. LOL.
