Two Little Feet

A textured and very stretchy children's sock for kids sized small preemie to around 8 years old. Extensive information on sizing is provided in the pattern to help you choose the right size, and even if you end up a little bit off the stretchy nature of the waffle stitch pattern means you're probably fine anyway. Any fingering weight sock-type yarn can be used for this pattern, go super-soft for the very youngest (or the very picky!) and look for something with a little bit of nylon, silk or nettles to add durability for kids who will wear their socks in shoes. A typical sock yarn with 350-450 m / 370-490 yards per 100 g / 3.5 oz will require approximately 25, 50 (50, 50, 75, 95)**(130, 140, 190, 230)** m / 30, 55 (55, 55, 80, 105)**(145, 155, 210, 250)** yards for sizes small preemie [ca. 1 kg / 2 lbs], preemie [ca. 2 kg / 4 lbs] (0-3 m, 3-6 m, 6-12 m, 1-2 y)**(2-3 y, 3-4 y, 5-6 y, 7-8 y)**. (Foot measurements and corresponding shoe sizes are given for reference in the actual PDF.) This pattern is provided for free as a way of paying the knitting community back for all the free patterns that once taught me how to knit socks. ?
