Finishing
Fold the top part of the bootie to find the center stitch on the heel. Position the sole aligning the center stitch of the last row with the center stitch at the heel of the bootie. Using a yarn needle, whip stitch all corresponding sts and/or row ends tog. There were a total of 34 sts on the last round of the top part of the bootie and the sole is 12 rows of 5 sts (12 row ends + 5 sts + 12 row ends + 5sts = 34). All sts should join in a one to one ratio.
