When I taught people to knit at A Twist of Yarn (a wonderful yarn shop in Vernon BC), the ladies in my Tuesday Afternoon class were my longest standing students.
Those students have become friends and each time I knit, I’m reminded of these ladies and the stories, trials, knitting tribulations and laughs. This pattern is dedicated to those ladies.

This pattern uses an Afterthought Heel. My favourite video tutorial for an Afterthough Heel is from The Chilly Dog and can be viewed by clicking the link below.
