=12th row:= K1(Y). P11(B). 11(P). 1(M). 11(P). 11(B). K1(Y). Work back from
11th to 1st. rows inclusive.** Repeat from ** to ** substituting (P) for
(B), (M) for (Y), (B) for (P), (Y) for (M) and purl rows for knit rows and
knit rows for purl rows. Proceed:-
Put first 12 sts. onto one needle. Slip last 12 sts. onto 2nd needle. Leave
these 2 needles for heel, and remaining 23 sts. on one needle for instep.
Working on the 23 instep sts. proceed:-

stripes to correspond to first whole (P) diamond worked. Leave these sts.
on needle until sole has been worked.
=To make heel:= Put all heel sts. onto one needle. With wrong side of work
facing, join (W) wool. K1. P10. P2tog. P10. K1. 23 sts. on needle. =1st
row:= Knit. =2nd row:= K1. Purl to last st. K1. Repeat these 2 rows 7

until all sts. are worked. 13 sts. on needle. Break wool.
=To shape instep and sole:= With right side of work facing and (W) wool,
pick up and knit 10 sts. along side of heel. Knit the 13 sts. from heel
needle and pick up and knit 10 sts. along other side of heel. =1st row:=
K1. Purl to last st. K1. =2nd row:= K1. K2tog. Knit to last 3 sts. Sl.1.
K1. p.s.s.o. K1. Repeat these 2 rows to 21 sts. on needle. Continue even in
Stocking st. until work measures same as instep piece. Divide sole sts. on
2 needles leaving instep sts. on one needle. Using (W) wool, working in
rounds on 3 needles, continue even until work, from where sts. were picked
up at heel, measures
