Folk love to see how yarns knit up (of course!) so I made a set of mini socks in Coop Knits Socks Yeah to take to shows. To my amazement, many folk have asked for the pattern so I thought I’d share it! As it’s Christmas season, I have included some in Christmas colours as well!

There are already a lot of great mini-decoration socks about but not all of them use a method used for regular wearable socks. This pattern uses a standard heel flap method so hopefully it will help you with making full size socks too. I know I’m a better sock maker now than I was eight of these ago!

The pattern can be knit in any sock yarn and is a fun way to use up scrap yarn. The needle size of 2.25mm is quite small but can be adjusted to 2.5mm if you are more comfortable with that. It will give a looser feel and a larger finish but as these don’t need to fit anyone, why not?
