These knitted shorties/ slippers socks are knitted toe up on 3.5 mm DPN’s. I worked them on 3 DPNs (2 for the stitches and 1 as working needle). If you are not comfortable knitting on 2 double pointed needles, you can distribute the stitches on 3 or 4 needles. You can use a long circular ones and magic loop as well.
Fits those tiny, sweet baby feet in first size. An excellent baby gift, or just a nice way to use up some leftovers. The little panda is appliqued after the socks were knitted. I used a duplicate knit stitch.
