MORE TINY IDEAS
β¨π§¦ We found little LED lights at the local hardware store.
β¨π§¦ One 100 gram ball makes 4-5 tiny socks.
β¨π§¦ You only need to make ONE sock!
β¨π§¦ We suggest Addi FlipStix for knitting with double pointed needles.
β¨π§¦ For magic loop sock knitting, try Addi Turbo Sock Rockets or Addi Rocket Squared circular needles.
β¨π§¦ In the spirit of Elizabeth Zimmermann (who wrote very brief suggestions instead of detailed directions), hereβs a "recipe" for how to knit tiny socks.
- Cast on 36 stitches on three needles.
- Knit a cuff for an inch or so.
- Knit the leg as long as you want it.
- Set aside 18 stitches for the instep.
- Knit a heel flap down the remaining 18 stitches.
- Turn the heel, pick up along the heel flap.
- Knit two gussets to get back to 18 stitches.
- Bring the 18 instep stitches back on the needles.
- Knit the foot as long as you want it.
- Knit a toe.
