Romano-Egyptian Stockings Part IV

So, that plan didn't work. The heel is too shallow. So I'm doing some short rows.

After the heel increases, work 8 pairs of matching wrap and turns, one stitch from the end of the row.

K 46, wrap & turn
P 44, wrap & turn
K 43, wrap & turn
P 42, wrap & turn
K 41, wrap & turn
P 40, wrap & turn
K 39, wrap & turn
P 38, wrap & turn
K 37, wrap & turn
P 36, wrap & turn
K 35, wrap & turn
P 34, wrap & turn
K 33, wrap & turn
P 32, wrap & turn
K 31, wrap & turn
P 30, wrap & turn

K across, picking up wraps, K last st w/ bound off edge
P across, picking up wraps, P last st w/ bound off edge

K 47, K last st tbl w/ st from bound-off edge (48 sts)
P 47, P last st tbl w/ st from bound-off edge (48 sts)

for 14 rows

then start picking up the stitch from the bound-off edge instead of working it together
