interesting sock discussion

Sounds interesting , thus in fact one might knit 3 heels at the same
time and keep one as reserve ???

Hi Mirjam. A peasant heel, or afterthought heel, is a heel knitted
onto the sock last. It's really just another toe where a turned heel
would normally go. Instead of darning up a hole in the heel you can
just pull it off and put on a new one!

I just started a pair in crochet and will try to make my heel on more
than 50%. Given the pattern and the way the sock is worked, it will
end up being on about 66%. I'll let you know how that goes.

Good Sock luck
