You can use your minis, leftovers and yarn scraps for these fun looking socks. They are knit toe up with magic loop. You can knit them two at a time because both socks are identical. Knit and Fit Shorties pattern has Garter stitch German Short Row heel. If that isn’t your thing you can always switch it to your own preferred heel. If you want the leg / cuff to be longer, just add more rows.

The pattern has been written for women’s European foot size 39. But not to worry, I designed it so that you can easily modify the size without disturbing the pattern. Use 2 mm (US 0) needle to get size 38. Or 2.75 mm (US 2) to get size 40. You can knit your socks with less stitches and rows to get smaller socks. Or add extras to get bigger socks. Just knit and fit along the way and you’ll get a perfect pair for you.
