To cute! wow I have not posted in forever and still have to much to do to spend alot of time on here yet maybe this winter it will slow down for me....Stacy

Very cute Flamey... I have crochet socks for my Christmas tree. Never thought of knitting any. ;)

Moni

HEY.........talk to the Mumster,she knows how to knit.Maybe this could be her new "thing"!

Those are so cute. I bet the crocheted ones are just as neat.

So cute. I printed out the pattern. I thought I would knit one or two to wear as a seasonal decoration for my winter jacket. Dottie

Moni, Mum is off of knitting right now, she doesn't even want to make regular sized socks right now. She's not seeing as well as she used to and that thin sock yarn and tiny needles would send her over the edge! She's enjoying not having any projects right now, she had gotten a little OCD over the scrubbies and dishcloths.

She even gave me back that skein of very cool yarn that makes the stripes and patterns as you knit, she said she'll never use it for socks and wants me to find a new home for it. I can't return it to the store where I got it, though, since she knitted a couple of inches of cuff.

Mingo, I have a pattern that you can use to crochet little stockings- they are "lumpier" than these but still cute. My mom and I have made 100s over the years. Ya want me to send it to you?

Oh, Stewie is afraid of his new cat toy. For a cat who loves to sit in the window and "chirp" at the birds at the feeder, he sure is scare of a toy bird that chirps! LOL

Me, too, Flamey; have always wanted to learn how to knit.

Think of how many things I could make for those great grand triplets of mine! :)

You're so very crafty, I'm surprised you didn't pick knitting up from your Mum years ago. :)

Ahh, those are really cute....

But I'm shocked YOU don't know how to knit, Miss Crafty herself!! You better get learning, woman! :-)

Flames, if you haven't found a home for that yarn, I'll buy it from you. I would love to play with it.

Janie, would you mind sharing the pattern with me, too? I love to crochet and knit.

Those are darling little sockies. I bet your small, nimble fingers could crank out a bunch of those Flamey. Maybe it's time you learned a new craft. You might enjoy it this winter while sitting in front of the fire watching Survivor and Amazing Race. I learned just the basic knit one pearl two kind of knitting years ago. I was going to make a sweater. I think it just turned out a long scarf looking piece and I gave up. LOL

I do lots of stuff without patterns... specially in crocheting. Never learned to follow an American crocheting pattern.

Here's one of the ones I made.

They're adorable! I sent the pattern to my cousin Barbara, who made the socks I posted about. Thanks!

i'd learned ages ago but had never made a thing...went to michales and picked up a book for children...was fairly easy directions...

I am hopeless when it comes to doing anything with yarn and needles or hooks, I have tried and I just cannot get past the awkwardness of it all, I become fumblefingers. So I gave up trying, I knew if I needed something knitted or crocheted, I could get Mum to do it for me, or find someone other sucker, er, friend to help me out! lol And I think tiny stockings might be harder than full-sized ones.

I could sew some, but I think the knitted ones are just so precious. Thanks, Janie, for the offer. Send it to the Buzzard, though, because she's going to need it!

Buzzy, watch yer mail, yarn is heading your way. Thanks for giving it a good home.

I think these would make super cute cat socks! Do you think I can get Winston to leave them on? He still draws blood once in a while - these would be a great help. lol

Lydia - also not a knitter, crocheter or seamstress.

Knitting that sock would be like sewing barbie doll clothes, which in MY language translates to SHEER TORTURE!!!

They sure are cute though!

Lori

I'm wondering what you were doing looking at a knitting/yarn web site!!! I know you don't know how to use a hook or needles! Those are cute. I saved the pattern to the hard drive, as we don't have a printer in the motor home.

Janie, can you send me the crochet pattern, too, please?

Tami

I am reminded of my mother's description of the cornucopias that were put on the tips of the tree's branches. Inside each were candies for the children. I think these little stockings would look cute with some Christmas candies in them too.

Those are too cute! I have bookmarked the site. I might try making some. Thanks!

Well, I finally put some paper in my printer ready to print out this mini sock pattern, and I cannot find the pattern. I find sites that talk about the pattern, even give the gauge and yarn and needle size, but no pattern. Anyone out there with the pattern for us?

Bumping this up to try to locate the pattern

Sheila, it's a PDF file located right under the top photograph in the link up top. Click on it and it should download into your computer.

thanks, flamey
