i'm trying out yet another toe version on my knitted socks. this one is the short row toe which has a rounder shaped toe (not sure if this holds true) and a smoother feel (definitely true since it's "seamless"). it's quite easy to knit once you get the hang of it, especially if you refer to this incredibly helpful two-part tutorial.

edit / the same tutorial can be found here on ravelry since the original link is no longer active.

    Hi, just recently found your blog and I just love these sock knitting posts! I've been busy trying different heel+toe techniques on baby socks lately and I think that I've decided that short row heels and toes are my favourite ;-)
