Hedgehog Socks
These Hedgehog socks match the Mrs. Hedgehog sweater. They move around your feet, as I shift the baby hedgehog three stitches forward per every tier. I knitted short socks but of course you can make them as long as you like.
It’s a simple sock pattern, knitted toe up. Short rows form toe and heel.
