September 2005
It's never too early for handknit socks, that's what I say, so I knit these for some friends' two-week-old daughter. I based the numbers on the Better-than-Booties Baby Socks patterns (by Ann Budd) in the summer 2005 Interweave Knits -- the pattern is also available online as a free PDF -- but just did *k1, p1* ribbing on the cuff and top of foot. These took just a wee part of a skein of Fleece Artist merino, knit up on 2mm needles. So adorable, plus I learned a new short-row technique.
