Notes

Had yarn leftover and wanted to try the heel with the single Jawoll, without the enforcement, so I casted those on again. The fabric is on the looser side for the heel, but you cannot really say it is holey…

Left out the lattice as I think it did not show very well. Tried to dublicate the slip stitch pattern from the Gnome Adventure at the transition from cuff to leg, but had the pattern not with me so it looks way different.

The finished butterfly heel without the enforcement is indeed quite loose and holey for me, especially on the side where you k2tg. Ended up sewing it together (pictures are taken before that) and will probably not use it again so soon.

Did start the toe after 15.5 cm, so socks are more a size 39 then 38, so I think those will go in the donation box.
