Thanks to the knitting of Old Tile, the plain stocking stitch for the foot became so soothing (instead of boring) to me yesterday ... and unobstructed with the single colour ... and went amazingly fast!
And I think I finally found the perfect way to knit short-row toe and heel:
See? No holes! And the double wrapping is easy to manage using this elastic yarn. I still have to see how it is going to be with other finer sock yarns.
Now the break is over and I am back with Old Tile ... left front Row 5 .. yay!

Those heels and toes look great, and very neat! Good luck with the rest of the sock!
Nice short row heel, no holes.
That one looks so similar to the sock I just made... except your short rows look better than mine :)
What a nice cozy looking sock with ultra neat heels!
I, too, bow down to your hole-less short-row heel/toe. I never seem to be able to master that.
I can't do a heel -- no matter what the technique -- without holes. I bow to you!
What very neat sock knitting. Makes me want to get back to my socks now...
Great job on the holeless heel. I hope to channel that when I do my sock!
