Have you noticed a marked difference in how band heel socks fit, compared to more traditional heel flap & gusset socks? BTW, I work a toe-up sock toe very much like your band heels, but with increases instead.

Is it possible to knit this heel in reverse for a toe up sock? If so would you please do a video, many thanks.

Does this socks stay put or does it slip down when you start to walk? THANKS.
