Don’t let the sock craze leave you behind. Here is a fun and easy way to knit socks with 2 straight needles. Enjoy knitting your socks without purchasing double points and managing 3 to 4 needles at once and wear your new fancy 2 needle socks with pride

Recently, I started knitting socks for my father creating a mini sock wardrobe. The socks are super easy and of course can be changed easily to fit your own needs. I used a combination of Red Heart and Paton’s sock yarns but, any sock yarn may be used. The Basic Sock pattern will instruct you how to adjust to create the perfect sock for you!
