These adorable tiny socks are perfect for babies. They fit like a glove, are thin and stretchy and stay on their feet! The fun “striped” effect is actually achieved by crocheting with both colors at the same time, working in spirals with no joins.

Size is determined by the yarn and hook you choose. There is one pattern written for Newborn using lace weight yarn, and a second pattern written for 3 month using lace weight and 6 month using extrafine sock yarn. The smallest difference in hook size and yarn weight makes a big difference in the size of the sock, so choose your yarn carefully.
