Peekaboo Chihuahua Socks are playful fingering weight colorwork socks featuring a Chihuahua portrait peeking out from the leg, little paws, bone motifs on the back, a customizable name panel, and a surprise paw print on the sole.

This pattern includes written instructions, colorwork charts, 72-stitch and 80-stitch chart options, foot length markers, toe instructions, and a visual short-row heel tutorial. An alphabet chart is also included so you can personalize the leg with your favorite Chihuahua’s name, initials, or a short word that fits the name panel.
