Make It, Give It, Sell It - Crochet Trimmed Socks

Little girl’s socks trimmed in crochet are so precious.
They are a cinch to make. You can use any stitch you’d like.
Below are a couple of recommendations.
You can use threads or fun fur type yarns.
They are done with a steel hook, any small one will do, approximately size 7.
Using a small hook makes it easy to insert it in the sock.Instructions
Rnd 1: Sc, ch 5, sc around the sock leaving a small space between each sc. Join to first sc.
Rnd 2: Sl st in first 3 ch, sc in ch 5 loop; ch 5 sc in each ch 5 loop around.
Finish off with a sl st in first sc.
Make as many rounds as you like.

Rnd 1: Ch 3, dc around, join with sl st to top of ch 3.
Rnd 2: In top of ch 3 work: ch 3, dc, ch 3 2 dc (shell made). *Skip next 2 dc, make shell (2 dc, ch 3, 2 dc) in next dc. Repeat from * around. Join with sl st to top of ch 3.

    I love those! Thanks for the directions, I might have to give it a try. I think my “big girl” (12) might still wear those occasionally! Especially the fun fur ones!

    Thank you for these instructions. I used them a couple of years ago to decorate socks for my granddaughter. I now have another granddaughter on the way so I wanted to decorate some socks for her too. Thank you again.
