Knit the back of the stocking and continue this pattern round the other 2 needles, which will conclude the row. The next 3 rows are knit plain, except the seam stitches, which must be attended to. This finishes the pattern and you begin again at the first row and repeat the pattern 45 times. You then begin the heel. Knit the seam stitch on the first needle plain, then knit the pattern row of the stripe. Knit the back of the stocking and knit the first stripe off of the next needle. Using the needle you have knit the stripe and the back of the stocking with. Remembering that this is the pattern row. Knit the seam stitch at the end of the stripe plain. You have now 2 stripes and the plain back of the stocking on the heel needles, and 3 stripes on the front of the stocking. With the front you have at present nothing to do.

Take up the loops all along the second side of the heel, and take half the heel stitches on the same needle. Then slip the first stitch. Knit the second, pull the slipped stitch over it, knit the remaining stitches on the needle. There should now be 41 stitches on each of the side needles. The middle of the heel ends the row.
