Once you start knitting these socks I challenge you to stop!

Wee Baby Socks knit up fast and are perfect for your leftover sock yarn. Newborn size only requires 41 yards and the 6-12 Months size 79 yards. You may customize the sock to have ribbing at the cuff and the top of the foot or ribbing at the cuff only.
