Finnmyrten Socks & Slippers

Finnmyrten socks and slippers are worked top down, in stranded colourwork.
Heel is worked in Afterthought Heel style, where a strand of scrap yarn is worked in to create a hole for heel when unravelling the scrap yarn.
Heel is worked in the round, without complicated wraps and turns, when the main part of the sock is completed.
