1
oz Baby yarn or sport and a size F hook. (for newborn size use Size
G hook)
Ch 2 and sc into the first ch with 5 scs.
Rnd 1: 2 sc in each sc. (10 sc)
Rnd 2: sc in first sc, 2 sc in next
sc and repeat that around so you now have 15 sc.
Rnd 3: sc in each st around without
joining, and continue in this manner until the socks are long enough- approx.
5".
Stripes in different colors look great!
TOP OF SOCK: When the sock is long
enough, either do a round of HDC in back loops only, or alternate one FP
st and one BP st all around.
For girls, at the end of the last rnd, ch
4, *skip one sc, sc into next, ch 4 and repeat from * around top of bootie
sock.
You can thread some nice ribbon through your
top stitches so the sock can be tied securely.
Finish off, cutting a 3" tail of yarn, and
weave that tail back inside the sock.
