> Also, my kit came too late for the 1st class, and I wasn’t exactly sure how to put the kit together, but I explored it on my own. I found it hard to tell the difference between the diamond and circular holes, so for the toe area, what I did was line up the oval piece of leather with the padding of the shoe, in the toe area, found the last hold on the oval piece, to either side of the toe and from there, found a hole on the side of the shoe that matched up with the toe hole. In this way, I stitched up the toe, but maybe I didn’t do it right because the 4 large holes across the center are still lonely since I didn’t put the laces through them.
> For the heel, I put the laces through the bottom 2 holes and 3 pieces of leather from the inside out. Then I made a crisscross of the laces and put the ends through from the outside in and stitched up the sides from there and tied the finishing knots once I went through all the holes. So, the knots I tied to finish off the toe area and the knots I tied at the sides of the shoe are basically right next to each other.  I wear a size 6, and I was happily surprised to find that they fit me comfortably.
