Favourite heel for socks?

Hello,

I agree with @shsh01.

To achieve the best fit and aesthetic, selecting the appropriate heel for a new sock knitting project requires taking into account a number of aspects.

1. Fit & comfort
2. Sock structure & stretch
3. Aesthetic preference
4. Yarn & pattern

This is my opinion. I am very excited to see more opinions with different different perspectives.

Je préfère le talon renforcé, il me tien mieux au pieds

Heel flap and gusset. High instep so I find this gets the best fit for me

Вяжу пятку самым простым способом, так, как в школе еще научилась, укороченными рядами.

I like short row heels and I like heel flap & gusset heels.  Both work for me.
