Look up the method on Nona Knits wrapping technique, practice that a few
times and if it works for you...great. Now to turn the work into an
invisible short row...Work short row the normal way except...slip the
stitch to face it's neighbor so that knit faces knit...purl faces
purl....this may require slipping and turning the same slipped stitches
a few times. When it's time to knit the st and the wrap together ....you
will make this small change: insert needle into the heart of st and
wrap (lifting the wrap to do so if necessary) then while needle is still
inserted, pull needle up to lift wrap over the st ...placing it behind
the st to be worked. Now complete the st...knitting on knit side,
purling on purl side. What this does is takes the wrap LATERAL of the st
it protects and hides it at the same time. When the sock is in use...the
lateral wrap st becomes a filler block...no holes, no gaps. Give it a
try.
