I just signed up for the next round of Socktoberfest, and I can't wait :) I was so sorry to hear about your grandma; I hope you and your family share a wonderful celebration of her life.

I want to send you my deepest condolences - just from the beautiful photos you posted alone, I can see how much soul she had. The eyes tell such a powerful story, don't they? May her memory be a blessing to you and your family. You are in my thoughts. Lolly, I have been so busy this week, I just now read about your Nana.

Even though I've never knit with Malabrigo...it always brings the oohs and aahs out of me. Looks lovely! Can't wait to see your progress. I'm really sorry for your loss. My thoughts are with you and your family. Mmm. Even though I’ve never knit with Malabrigo…it always brings the oohs and aahs out of me. Looks lovely! Can’t wait to see your progress.

I haven't found a way to completely get rid of the holes on a short row heel, it's part of the structure. One thing I have found that can minimize the holey effect is after doing the decreasing, but before working back out again, do 2 full rounds, all the way around the whole sock. Make sure to do any patterning required on the top of the sock. Then, begin the second half of the heel. I have to agree on her misunderstanding your question as well.

What she described is the short rows on a FLAP HEEL not a true short row heel! I too am a PGR yo short row heel enthusiast but there will be a tiny little hole...if you look at that short row heel on store bought sock you will see a teenie hole there too!
