Easy Happy Feet



3 size, 1 ball, these little sox are super easy and adorable.

I combined a few techniques and made a mistake at the heel on my first pair trying the short heel technique.

I found my mistake a way better result than the short heel. It works well on baby because their heel is not as defined as an adult.

From experience, I thought babies needed socks until they try to stand up so I made the pattern for 1 month, 3 month and up to 6 month old.


Size
Fits baby from 1, 3 to 6 months old

Gauge
22 sts and 28 rows = 10 cm/4", in st sts using US3(3.25 mm), fingering yarn.

Required materials
1 ball of Jojoland cashmere, fingering yarn, about 180 m or 200 yards
US 3 (3.25 mm), circular or DPN


Tuto disponible en français sur demande.
Après achat de la version anglaise, envoyer moi un email at byaltadena@gmail.com


I knitted a few samples for my first orders in size 6 months
 Mustard socks are with Classic Elite Alpaca sox
 Pink socks are in Jojoland cashmere 4 ply
 Blue socks are in Misti Alpaca worsted
the pattern works in different size, type of yarns perfectly.

Baby shower...part 2

More items knitted for the new baby.
This time I made little socks and a bonnet from a great book I had a for a while, "Tricots intemporels pour bébés"




I used Jojoland cashmere sport weight in a beige color = pure pleasure!!

The socks only took 1 hour each
I started at the toes instead of the ribbing, it is just easier

It is a great pattern for tiny little feet and everybody loves it so much that I have already made a dozen for my friends
