Toe Up Gusset Heel

Another on the endless sock journey - this one a bulkier yarn, a Brown Sheep I've had for a while- (I think it's this), knit on my new Lantern Moon Sox Stix (ooooOOOOOoooooo........). Started at the toe, increased in a wedge pattern using knit-front-and-back-of-loop, making up a diamond pattern with pearl stitches in the top. Going to make a heel flap that goes under the heel, then run the gusset up the leg. I'm kind of thinking this might be the best of all worlds. Starting at the toe lets you just keep increasing until it fits your foot, (although I went a little too much and had to decrease a little) and the toe-up way will allow me to lengthen the cuff until I like it, or I run out of yarn. Hmmm........
