Next row (WS): sl 1st st p-wise wyif, p 4, p 2 tog (last st in centre group and 1st st in outer group of sts). Turn work.
Next row: sl 1 k-wise, k 4, k2 tog tbl (last st of centre group and 1st st of outer sts).
Rep from * until all of the ouster sts have been dec. = 6 sts rem. on needle. Now work in rnds over all needles. The beg of the rnd is the centre of the 6 sts just knit.
Next rnd (1st rnd): pick up 7 [8] sts from each heel edge. There are now 10 [11] sts on each of the 1st and 4th needles and 8 [9] sts on each of the 2nd and 3rd needles.
Next rnd: For the gusset on the 1st needle: k to 3 sts before end of needle, k 2 tog, k 1; k 16 [18] (2nd and 3rd needles); k 1, skp, k to end of rnd.
Work these decs in every 2nd rnd until 7 [8] sts are on each of the 1st and 4th needles.
Work straight to the 23rd [28th] row from the heel then work the toe.
Next rnd: * k to 3 sts before end of first needle, k 2 tog, k 1; k to 3 sts before end of 2nd needle, skp, k 1. Rep from * once more to end of rnd on the 3rd and 4th needles.
Rep these decs in every 2nd rnd 2 [3] times more then in every rnd until only 2 sts rem on each needle. Break yarn and thread through these rem 8 sts and pull taught. Weave in ends.
