Grow with Me
These socks are designed to fit the ever growing feet of toddlers. The ribbed leg and instep create a sock that expands as the child grows, allowing you to simply rip back the toe portion of the sock, extend it by half an inch and knit a new toe as their feet grow. Choose the size below closest to the foot circumference of the child and knit the foot length to fit. It is possible to get 2-3 shoe sizes from a pair by simply lengthening the foot as needed. My own son wore the pair pictured for 3 winters, with two toe increases.
7/30/10: Updated File: There was an error in the Stitch totals for the first round of the toe shaping. Pattern should read: “Work these two rounds a total of 4 6, 7, 9 times. 32 36, 44, 48 stitches remaining”
8/19/10: Updated Pattern: Rd 2 of sock toe should read: Round 2: Knit all stitches.
