Mmmmmkay. Here goes – sorry some of the photos are blurry, it’s just me and my 2.1 mp camera round here! Consider this my contribution to Socktoberfest! Photo heavy post, of course. Click photos to embiggen.
This is the method I use on my short-row heels. These days I do the short-row heel almost exclusively; I just find it so darn fast and easy. No counting (well, minimal counting) and no increase in stitch number. Plus, it fits me well – your mileage may vary. And yes, this does involve knitting and purling three things together. I knit quite loosely; this might help me do those more easily than someone who knits tighter.
Without further ado!
The heel is worked on 50% of the total sock stitches – in this case I’m doing a 64 stitch sock, so 32 stitches for the heel. Using 1 needle, knit across to the last heel stitch (here, k 31). (The photo isn’t of the 32nd stitch – it’s much easier to show you when several stitches have already been wrapped.)
Bring the yarn to the front. Slip the stitch purlwise. Bring the yarn to the back and put the just-slipped stitch back onto the left needle.
When you turn, your yarn will already be in the correct place to start purling.
Purl across to the last heel stitch. Keeping the yarn in front, slip the stitch purlwise. Bring the yarn to the back and replace the slipped stitch on the left needle.
When you turn, the yarn will be in the front. Bring it to the back between the needles to start knitting.
Knit across to one before the previously wrapped stitch, wrap, and turn. Purl across to one before the previously wrapped stitch, wrap, and turn. Continue to work back and forth, wrapping and turning one stitch before the previous wrap on each end. I go until I have 14 stitches remaining unwrapped in the middle.
Now the tricky part – picking up the wraps! Knit across to the first wrapped stitch – this one is only wrapped once.
Insert the right needle tip into the wrap from bottom to top, and then into the stitch.
Knit the two together by wrapping the yarn, then bringing the new stitch through the old stitch and then the wrap.
Wrap the next stitch (this next stitch now has two wraps) and turn. Purl across to the first wrapped stitch – this stitch has one wrap.
See the row of bumps? Those are the wraps, and they need to be picked up on the public side in order to become invisible. Pick up the wrap on the right side of the work, from bottom to top.
Place this wrap on the needle. Purl these two together.
Wrap the next stitch and turn. Knit to the first double-wrapped stitch. You’ll need to pick up both wraps.
Place the right needle tip up through both wraps from bottom to top, then into the stitch.
Knit these three together.
Wrap the next stitch and turn. Purl to the first double wrapped stitch – here’s a photo of the two wraps, from the right side.
Pick up both wraps from the right side, from bottom to top.
Place them on the needle and purl the three together.
Wrap the next stitch and turn. Continue to work back and forth, picking up the double wraps and wrapping the following stitch. When picking up the wraps on the last heel stitch, I like to wrap the following (non-heel) stitch to prevent a hole from forming there.
When you turn and purl across, pick up the wraps on the last purl stitch and then wrap the following stitch. Turn and work all the way around the round, picking up each of these two wraps on your way.
Ta-da! No holes!

My method’s pretty similar to that of misocrafty, so you might want to check that tutorial out too!

Thank you – it’s basically what I already do, but I think I’m getting a little careless about how I pick up the wraps. I have a toe-up sock on the needles right now, and I’m rapidly approaching the heel – I will definitely be referring to your tutorial.
Thanks again.
Thankyou! Very clear and easy to understand – I’ll give it a go on my next pair.
Thank you so much for taking so many pictures. If only I had a sock ready to start the heel. ;) I think I will practice on a baby size sock.
Thank you so much! I’m going to try it right NOW!! Haha. No, reallly.
Thanks so much for the great tutorial. I do it the exact same way, except for the extra wrap to avoid a hole. That was going to be my question to you, since I always end up with a hole, but you’ve already answered it. I’ll be trying it out on my Soctoberfest socks.
Thank you so much for doing this tutorial – I have printed it for future reference!
Wow, thank you for this! I’ve been wanting to try a short-row heel – I’ll cast on this evening. This will be so helpful!
Great tutorial! I think I’ve figured out why my short-row heels always looked a little sloppy – so thanks for sharing!
Oh wow, great tutorial! This is the best tutorial I’ve seen. I think lots of pictures are always the key. Luckily I learned short rows so i can knit Lizard Ridge from Knitty. I will definitely post a link to this tutorial on the knitalong I started for Lizard Ridge.
VERY nice tutorial. I love short row heels but hate, absolutely hate trying to pick up the wraps (especially on the purl side). I can never see them well enough, they always misbehave, and then I get frustrated (grin). Which, of course, is why I use YOs instead of wraps, but still . . . maybe I’ll try again now that I have all these nice pictures to work from….
Wonderful tutorial–I can’t wait to start my next pair of socks. One question, and I feel silly, but am unsure. This is to be used only when doing toe up? Or can it also be used knitting cuff down?
Great tutorial! I am knitting my first toe-up socks and am ready to start the heel. I was feeling a little lost but your tutorial has helped me gain some confidence. Thanx.
Ooooh. That came in handy at just the right time. I just got some amazing sock yarn and was plotting to start working on them but was loaaaaaathing the heel flap. Much thanks!
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it. It was MUCH easier to follow than the others.
I’m just about to turn the heel on my first sock – good timing!
[…] Check out this excellent short row heel tutorial. […]
Do you mind if I link to this entry for Socktoberfest tutorial? I know you are not participating, but you have shared some great information that I am sure would be helpful to many others. Please let me know – thanks!
Thanks so much for this. You made it easy to understand.
So clear, so easy to understand! Thank you. I’ve been knitting for a long time but never attempted socks, and now I feel that much closer to my first attempt.
Great tutorial, thank you !
Thank you so much! Just for clarification . . . on the purl side, I need to turn it to the knit side to pick up the wraps?
Thank you for this! I love toe up socks, but those stupid holes were getting to me. Next time I do one, I am going to try wrapping that extra stitch!
[…] As I said, I’m working on some socks for my SP. She said she doesn’t knit socks because “ya’ll must be on something to be playing with that tiny yarn and all of those tiny DPN’s”. So I’m making her a pair of simple socks using worsted weight wool (Lion Brand Felting) and size 3 dpns. Not exactly “tiny”, but small enough to not be bulky. I’m going to send these in the next package (because there’s no way they’ll be finished any time soon) along with some fancier worsted weight (I’m thinking Art Yarns Supermerino) and nice needles. I also have an idea involving something breakable, but I can’t spoil the surprise for everyone! Hehe. Anyway, the socks are just simple stockinette, but I did a picot cuff so they’re a little girlier. I sort of made it up as I went along, because I couldn’t find a decent pattern for worsted weight socks. I should have knit another round on each side of the picot, but now I know for next time, eh? I also decided to try doing a short row heel. For some reason, my heel never looks right when I pick up stitches along the flap, and this method just seems to look better. So I did it. And I love it! It looks sooooo much better, and it’s much easier and way less counting. I used Cosmic Pluto’s Tutorial which was supposed to be hole-less, yet somehow, I still ended up with a hole. I think I picked up the last wrap kinda funny, but all in all, I’m happy with the outcome. […]
Thanks for the tutorial! I’ve been looking for instructions for a short-row heel that I could actually understand (I can be very dim when it comes to following instructions!) and yours was perfect – my heel came out just right! Thanks again!
Honest, I’ve seen surgeries that were simpler than what you’re demonstrating here.
So I finally got a chance to use this, and it is incredibly helpful! Thank you so much.
Excellent toot!
Will use on my 2 toe ups on one circ currently knitting. Thanks so much!
fantastic tute and just what I needed!! So far so good on heel #1! Tute printed and at the ready :)
When I am trying out a technique—such as doing a heel, a neckline, a picked up sleeve in armhole, etc., I am too impatient to wait until I have knitted the entire item—so, I simply cast on (using invisible cast on, if applicable with “waste yarn”), then I “practice” whatever technique I am learning. I have a collection of different heels with the various instructions used for them in a “Project basket”. When I need to refer to doing a certain technique, I have the example at hand with the instuctions–the type of yarn used and the needle size.
Buying a scanner, printer, copier “all-in-one” was one of the best purchases I made after learning to use a computer! I have a good collection of patterns, techniques, and photos of finished projects in the computer—and “saved” to floppies and CD’s. I feel organized for the first time in some 40-odd years of knitting—OOPS! I think I just admitted my “age”—
Thanks for this tutorial! I’ve only done heel flap so far and wanted to try short row heel for my current sock.
I found this through Crafster. Thanks for the tutorial. It totally clears up my issues with short rows and short row heels. You are great!
I keep reading the explanations for short row heels and they just aren’t clicking. I’d really like to sit with someone and work through it. I’d be more than willing to pay for the lesson. I live in Clayton, AL, which is half way between Dothan and Montgomery, also about the same distance from Columbus Ga. Is there anyone, or any shop out there that can provide instruction?
Thanks for any help you can provide. And yes, I have knit lots of socks with the gusset heel, none with the short row heel.
Thank you for the concise and clear tutorial. My very first heel looked clean and well done, and that after a long, suffering struggle with sock knitting in general!

Thank you SOOOOOOOO much for this tutorial. After reading many different instructions and looking at many different pictures, yours is the first one that actually made sense. Thanks again for your clear and concise instructions!!!!
Is the end effect not the same as increasing a stitch purlwise, what you call “wrapping” a stitch when making a short row heel? I just made a pair of baby booties from the ankle on down, and they used a short row heel for that. I just didn’t get the whole wrapping thing, still don’t, but the way it was explained with the purlwise stitch increase it made sense and worked perfect. I will use this to finish up my toe up sock now that I found this method.
Thank you soooo much for this tutorial! I have wanted to try the short row heel for some time, but it always looked too complicated. I printed out your instructions and “just did it”. It is not NEARLY as hard as I thought. You have great step-by-step instructions. Thanks again!! :)
Your tutorial totally rocks!! This is the first one I’ve seen (whether the others were in books or online) that has made complete sense. Your directions are clear and concise and the accompanying photos are picture-perfect! Thanks.
[…] On the next row, work the first stitch and the wrap together. Turn work and knit (or purl) to the next wrapped stitch; pick up the wrap and knit it together with the stitch. For a better explanation of short-row heel technique, see here. […]
Had to thank you for your short row tutorial. I have always wanted to do it but could never find an easy way to do it. I looked at a lot of sites and blogs yours was the best ever.
Thanks again for your knowledge

I love you. I literally love you for this tutorial.
Me and my lizard ridge squares are actually proposing marriage to you now.
(on the wrong side rows i was picking up the wrap from the wrong side.. how ludicrous is it that I couldn’t figure it out?! MUCH LOVE)
Yay!!! I finally got the short row heel to work thanks to you. I’ve tried other websites, books and even sat down with a friend. I think I was also picking up the wrong side wraps wrong. It seems right to be wrong but it is right to be right even when you’re wrong. You are a miracle worker to be able to cut through the load of “logic” that I carry around.
Thank you,
Kathy
Thanks so much for this, with this tutorial, my third try at toe-up succeeded!
This tutorial is grounds for a marriage proposal. I love you…I really love you!
I have tried several methods of short row heels and after picking up my wraps, I can never make both sides of the heel look the same. One side (the purl side) looks really nice and the seam is close and finished looking. The other side (the knit side) always looks like it has holes in it. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong and it doesn’t make any difference which method I use, I always have the same result.
If someone knows how to fix this problem, please advise.
You’re a lifesaver! Thanks for helping me knock one of my New Year’s resolutions off the list!
Many thanks for your graeat tutorial. All the photos are perfect to show how to.
Magnifique.
Amicalement.
At last, short-row instructions that make sense to me. And just in time for the heels of my first toe-up socks. Muchas gracias!
Thank you SO much for this! I actually used the tutorial on misocrafty because I was frankly a little intimidated by the knitting and purling of so many sts at the same time for my first short row heel. My first attempt had holes where the heel and instep rejoin and I was thinking maybe I ought to wrap the first instep st on each side and lo and behold – that is exactly what you recommended! Thank you for such a fabulous blog and wonderful tutorials!
This may become my “heel of choice.” I’m very pleased with the results and your instructions were very clear. Many thanks.
Thanks for the pics! This helped me figure out a pattern tonight. :)
[…] The other thing I tried was slightly different short row techniques for the heel turn. Since I knit the backwards heel flap because of my high instep, I just use the short row to get the heel cup. I used the double wraps as chronicled by misocrafty and Cosmicpluto — the difference being misocrafty passes the wrapped stitches over the knitted stitch while Cosmicpluto actually knits the wraps. [Click for big.] […]
You have changed my life possibly more than electricity and vaccines. Thank you.
Thanks for this. I am trying my first short row heel, and have tried two different sets of instructions, the ones from the pattern, and another set I found online.
I couldn’t figure them out, and I have frogged TWICE.
Your instructions are much clearer, and I shall try with a mini-sock. The photos make it clearer, and I can now see what I am trying to do.
I’ll let you know the outcome………

Great! I think I have it. The only problem I am having is on the purl side when I pick up the 2 wraps and the stitch, I can’t seem to be able to purl all 3 stitches together. Must be picking it up incorrectly.
Thank you SO much for putting this tutorial together… I just finished the heel on my FIRST sock ever, using your instructions and having never done short rows before, and I’m thrilled with how it came out. This is the best tutorial I’ve found, and I looked all over. Awesome!

I have experimented, and now start socks toe up using the figure 8 cast on starting with 12 stitches each instep and sole, increasing to 64 around for me and 72 around for my daughter. I use sock yarn and two size 1 16 inch circular needles to make both socks at the same time. It is a bit tricky for the first couple of rows, then it is the easiest technique I have tried. I have been using the Sherman heel picking up with the encroachment technique. Your tutorial is so comprehensive and intriguing that I will use it on the socks I am making now with Paton’s stretch sock yarn. Thank you.
Good inght, bloggesr =)
Where I may to find blogs ln this topic?
So nice!
Thank you so much! I think I’ve got it!
It’s been a few years since I made socks and the kid pattern I just started had this technique but no clear directions. I was so glad to find you and I have just finished my first heel, following along with this tutorial. Thank you – so quick and a lot nicer looking than picking up stitches along the edge.
I just wanted to give you a big THANK YOU from me for this wonderful tutorial. Ever thought of doing this on video? I’d subscribe to you for sure (on youtube). :D
Oh thank you! That picking up wraps thing was giving me fits–I ended up with holes. Now I see what I was doing wrong, so I won’t have to go to my LYS and bug them! :D

I usually do a heel flap, but I think a short-row heel looks better with really stripy socks like Regia Kaffe Fassett colours. I’ve usually done the double stitch heel but wanted to learn the wrapped heel technique as well. Your instructions were brilliant – thank you :o)
Thanks for this very good explanation of the short row heel. I’ve done it before, but always seemed to loose stitches along the way, and got holes in my heels. This is the first time it worked perfectly! I prefer the look of short row heels, but because of the holes I got, I didn’t use it a lot. But with this tutorial, from now on I’ll only knit short row heels.

Oh, thank you thank you thank you, Laura!!! I was trying to follow instructions in a sock book, and was about to lose my mind. I thought I was going to have to stick with tube socks!! LOL!! I dropped a stitch when nearly done and had to rip it out to start over on the heel, but I did get the hang of it very easily and was thrilled with the result. I’m not scared of short-row heels anymore! YAAAY!! Now, I can get into REAL socks and just knit my little heart out! Thanks, again!
just got done with another short-row heel. thanks for the tutorial; i’d be lost without it!

[…] It’s been years since I knitted a sweater – and I’ve never knitted one in one piece before, although I think about it all the time – I started knitting socks because I HATE to seam. DESPISE it. This little sweater has exactly one seam – at the top of the hood – and I will be pondering ways around that as I knit my way up to the top of the hood. The sleeves are picked up and knit like a shortrow heel. […]

thank you for a clear and concise (and illustrated!) tutorial for this heel technique! the pattern i am knitting now has a pretty unintelligible explanation of a 32-st short row heel:: your step-by step explanations make me feel stronger!
It seems like you do extra rows. My book says to end when both of the last heel stitches are wrapped. This takes me to the end of a purl row. I then turn and knit back to the midway point of heel – end of round. I knit the other part of the heel and the two wraps at the last stitch and continue around the rest of the sock, making the foot. When I get to the heel stitches again there is a double wrapped stitch to knit.
I could not work out at all how to add wraps for the instep stitches. If I have just wrapped and turned for the last time, I don’t get to go near that next stitch. Only if I knitted another 2 tows before joining. But doesn’t this give 2 extra rows of height before rejoining. I have to say how the book tells me worked ok. No holes. But I am curious about what you did as I don’t perhaps understand properly. I find that instructions for short row heels tend to taper off very abruptly so I was pleased there was an explanation to fall back on – I was trying to do yours in preference but then I gave up. Usually no one tells you when the heel stops and the foot starts. You do but I still don’t understand!

I dont see the photos either. I think it would help a lot especially to the part about the wrapped stitches and picking them up. Is there anywhere else these photos are published that we can see them?

Thank you,Thank you. I just spent $75 on books to try and figure out the short-row heel and your explanation finally made sense.
