THIS IS A KNITTING PATTERN, NOT SOCKS. Please read the pattern description.

Though Shark Week may have ended, I’ve decided to keep this promotion on as a bundle! You can get Shark Bait, Little Nibble, Catch of the Day, AND Small Fry as a bundle for only $15! Use coupon code “Aquatics Bundle” upon check out.

This sock is seamless (well, if you exclude a little bit of stitching at the corner of the mouths!) but instructions are given for if you’d rather knit the fins separately and sew them on later.

If you’re not a fan of the finned toe, instructions are given for a more standard toe.

Make sure to check out the projects of my test knitters! They’ve all done a wonderful job, and I’m very grateful to them. You can see some more projects on instagram: #sharkbaitsocks

Recommended for folks who have knit socks before. Though instructions are written in the pattern, I am not writing why things are done, just the how to do things.

Sizes in Pattern:
• Child’s Large/Woman’s Small (approximately women’s shoe size US 5-7)
• Woman’s Medium (approximately women’s shoe size US 7.5-9)

Note about “Child’s Large”: Sizes 9-12 years will likely be size Small in the adult sizes pattern, and sizes 12+ will likely be size Medium or even Large in the pattern. This may require adjustment of the foot length, but should otherwise match the pattern’s instructions.
