- A good tutorial with lots of pictures on a Wrapped Short Row Heel from CosmicPluto.
- From Kathy, Grumperina of Jaywalker fame, we have a nice stretchy bind-off, and tips on extending the toe and short-row heel with a bit of stockinette here.

This is a good list, thanks. I still haven’t found a short row heel that I’m 100% happy with.
