Boo! Bad Heel!
My beautiful socks hate me!
Turned the heel. Heel looks like crap, full of holes. Rip back. Start new heel. Heel goes wonderfully (the Baudelaire Heel from Knitty, just to let ya'll know). Try on sock. Cry. Rip heel again.

(Just in case it's not obvious: the heel turns about 1/2 an inch behind where my actual heel turns... the socks are too long!)
Edit: I'll keep adding edits as I work on figuring this out tonight... right now I've frogged one sock back to the point where the sole has been increased to 46 stitches. I'm starting the Baudelaire "style" heel by leaving 10 stitches on each side of the sole unwrapped, and 12 in the center, resulting in 7 wrapped stitches on each side.
