Crochet Baby Socks: Any Size, Baby Set Part 2

 

Hi,

How are you all? Here is my new creation Baby Socks. I made it for 6-9 months but you can make them in any size, I will tell the corresponding changes.

I use Bernet Softee purple yarn and Red Heart cream color yarn with 3.5 mm hook.

Pattern: With white yarn,

R1: In a magic loop make dcs 12, cl.

R2: dc2 in each st, cl (24). Join purple color at any st.

R3: dc 1 in each st, cl.

R4, R5, R6, R7: same as R3.

Make a knot but don't cut yarn. Place two markers in sts separating by 11 sts in between.

Join off-white yarn in a st just next to marker.

R8: ch1, hdc 1 in 5 sts, (hdc2) in next, hdc1 in next 5 sts, cl. (12)

R9 and R10: ch1, hdc 1 in each st. (12 sts)

Fold these 12 sts and sew 6 sts by tapestry needle (as shown in the video).

Join purple yarn in the middle of cream sts, now we shall work in round.

R11: ch1, sc2 in hdc-space (6 sts), sc1 in each st, sc 1 in each of the purple sts, sc2 in white hdc-space.

I have 25 sts but for border I need even number of sts, hence I decrease 1  or make (2sctog).

R12, R13, R14 and R15: dc 1 in each of the 24 sts, cl.

Join off-white yarn at any st.

Border: ch2(don't consider as first dc or fpdc

R16: (fpdc 1, bpdc1) 12 times

R17: fpdc on fpdc and bpdc on bpdc. BO.

The beautiful socks are ready.

Leaves: ch 6, from second ch, sc1, hdc1, dc1, hdc1, sc1). For stem ch6, skip 3 chs, sc1 in remaining 3 chs. Next round: instead of (2dctog, ch2), I made (dc1, ch2)

In last round, only make ch1 before and after joining the flower of 3 petals.

Small Doily: For small doily R1: dc12 in magic loop, cl R2: (dc2) in each st, cl.
