Thank you so much for making a very clear video for when to start your waste yarn and afterthought heel. I wasn't very impressed that I paid for a pattern that simply said "Knit in waste yarn for after thought heel here" with no indication as to WHERE to knit or at what point. Your video clearly says between 2inches to 2 & 1/4 inch! THANK YOU.
This is the best afterthought heel tutorial I have ever seen! Bravo! I especially like your part Three. Other videos skip this part thinking it too remedial (I suppose.) thank you so very much!!
hi knit purl,I wanted to ask you a question, you know a after thought heel,can I not just hang the two sides on waste yarn, so I can finish the whole tube Socks. the waste stitch I mean will be live stitches,so I can come and knit straight into them for decrease for the heel . does that make sense or is that a not going to work?
hi knit purl,I want to know if you can add a sweet Tomatoe padded heel on this type of socks cat bordhi uses it in Socks, would you know if this can be done.

there's an easier way, use a dpn to knit the waste yarn , then just go back with your circulars and knit over the waste yarn
You just made my sister very happy. She was struggling with the concept.
Yes! The pattern is Disappearing Act and it is a free download on my website. It was one of my KALs. Our new KAL starts in October.
@nolarivers It will be posted Feb. 22 as part of my knit along. Thanks for watching!

Excellent tutorial. Thank you. 🌹🌹🌹🌹
I love the little "hearts"! How did you make them? I'm sure that question exhibits my uber-beginner skill level, but I am dying to try!
It's just a knit stitch - it makes a little heart shape.
if i were to use a stick holder instead, would it give me the same result?

Love pattern you are using. Is it available to download
Thanks for the pattern for the after thought heel. What pattern are you using for the sock itself and is that available for download
I am knitting the Disappearing Act sock and it is a free download in the Free Pattern section in the Pattern Store on my website.
What yarn are you using here? I love it!
So I would stop at the point where the top of your foot creases?
Thanks so much!!
Does waste yarn need to be the same weight as your sock yarn
I would recommend the same weight yarn or slightly smaller to prevent the waste yarn from distorting the stitches.

+Kuriyez Islam I haven't tried it myself.
Ok thank you, for replying back to me.
yes
Where do you stop for heel if you do top down?
So you could have done that row on a dp and then use your ml
When the leg is the desired length.
