Pattern information:
The pattern uses a German Short Row Heel technique.
The socks should be washed in a machine on a hot cycle in order to felt.

German Short Rows:
(WS) Slip 1 stitch. Pull the working yarn up over the right needle, this brings both loops of the lower stitch over the right needle making a double stitch, purl across to the end of the row, turn.
(RS) Bring the working yarn to​ ​​the front of your work to the right of your last stitch, slip one stitch. Pull the working yarn up over the right needle, again this brings both loops of the lower stitch over the right needle making a double stitch​. ​Knit across to the double stitch, turn.
Later they will be worked together as one stitch.
