I watch Arne & Carlos and they showed doing a heel similar, but they used waste yarn, but they never actually showed how to knit that on because they only knitted the waste yarn on the half of the sock that has the heel, so I can only assume he switched to the waste yarn, then because he was using DPN's, he turned his work back to the regular sock yarn and knitted over the waste yarn. I have no idea since I can't find the video showing how he added that. But I kind of like the way you did it because you didn't pull out 2 stitches on either end which prevented holes. I am definitely going to try this with my socks from now on, so thank you. And don't say your video is boring, it wasn't boring. It was very informative.

Excellent video. Appreciate all the detail. I think this technique will work perfectly for a sweater I need to fix. I made a beautiful crew-neck sweater but didn't think to add short-row shaping to the neck so the back of the neck would come up higher than the front. I'll have to think about this some more and make sure I understand which way the shaping goes. Unlike with a sock heel, I'll probably have to close the opening with a kitchener stitch. My best bet will be to practice on a swatch.

a fellow continental knitter!!! this the only time i have ever seen someone knitting on youtube holding their yarn the same way i do. i dont get people who do the throw thing, your interrupting the flow of motion! hold the yarn in the back and just pick it up with your needle rather than stopping and throwing the yarn over the needles and starting again. Although i like your technique here personally i find the waste yarn to be less of a hassle, if you cut the wrong stitch your hooped. and theres also only two tails to weave instead of 4. thats just me though :)
