In this tutorial I show you how to re-knit the toes of socks that were outgrown, accidentally made too small or have un-darnable holes.

This can be done with any size socks made from any type of yarn (4-ply, 6-ply, 8-ply, etc.) and requires only a little bit of spare yarn - 10-20 g would be sufficient.
