There are few things more adorable than a baby in handknit socks, but they never seem to stay on their feet. These socks solve that problem with a garter stitch construction that hugs their feet and ankles, while their pom pom embellishments up the cute factor and will keep baby entertained. Even if you’ve never made socks before, the simple instructions will result in a one-of-a-kind pair of socks that any parent will be happy to receive and any baby will be happy to wear!
