Need Help With Heel Turn!
I am still slowly working my way through this sock pattern:

http://autoscopia.com/amelia/archive...e_socks_1.html

and I am somewhat confused about the heel turn. The instructions are:

Turn heel: Row 1: (RS) K15, ssk, K1, turn.
Row 2: Sl1, P5, P2tog, P1, turn.
Row 3: Sl1, K6, ssk, K1, turn.
Row 4: Sl1, P7, p2tog, P1, turn.
Cont as set until all sts have been worked (don’t work single st after decrease in last two rows), ending with Row 2. (14 sts)


I have done one cycle of Rows 1-4, but I don't know how to continue. What exactly does it mean to continue as "set"? Does that mean just do Rows 1-4 over and over again? But I don't have enough stitches to complete Row 1 if that's the case...

Just continue the pattern as it is written. You're doing some sort of short row here I think to make the heel turn. I've never done it that way before though.
