I knit this pair of socks up for my toddler son to wear in his boots. I chose to omit a heel so that he could wear them more than one year. In retrospect I wish I had knit them a little longer to get longer use out of them, which is noted in the pattern. This is a good beginner sock of you are afraid of the heel flap.

Skill Level & Skills Needed:
Beginner Knitter able to: knit in the round, knit with dpn’s, k2tog, ssk, and work either a Kitchener stitch or a three needle bind off.

I apologize for not knowing the yardage. I do know that I was using a left over ball from making a hat (the hat took two balls) and I had a small amount left. I am guessing it requires less than 75 yards more if you want them a little longer.

I am headed out to go camping and just noticed that the links in the pattern don’t work. I will fix it when I get back!
