Alternative Decreases for Great Looking Peasant Heels // Technique Tuesday

This video demonstrates an alternative to the standard method of working the decreases for a peasant sock heel (aka afterthought or forethought heel). The result is a defined diagonal line that dissects the heel, rather than the wide band that is typically called for.
