Baby Life Ring Socks

small rectangle spread between the needles, which are

holding the stitches of each long side. Pick up and knit

1 stitch in the short side next to the working needle.

Now let this needle rest. Push the other needle so that

it is ready to begin knitting its stitches, but ﬁrst pick

up and knit 1 additional stitch in the short side of the

rectangle between the needles. Knit the 11 (13, 13)

stitches on the needle, then pick up and knit 1 stitch in

the short side of the rectangle at the end of the needle.

Now let this needle rest. Push the other needle into

position to knit, and pick up and knit 1 last stitch in the

short side of the rectangle between the needles. (13, (15,

15) stitches are on each needle. Six months only: *Knit 1,

make 1 left, knit 13, make 1 right, knit 1, repeat from *

on second needle. (17 stitches on each needle)

For both the heel turn and heel, work back and forth in

his toe-up design, knit on two circular needles, begins

with a Boxy Toe. A baby’s feet need room to wiggle, and

are rather boxy-shaped, after all. he spandex or lycra-rich

yarns are a pleasure to knit with, and the stretchy socks will

stay on baby’s little feet. I call these Life Ring Socks because

the rolls resemble the life preserver rings that hang beside

swimming pools. he sock’s “Life Rings” can be bunched

down to ﬁt around the ankle, or pulled up like a knee sock,

if baby is chilly. he elastic yarns also let the sock stretch to

ﬁt growing feet a little longer.

Cascade Fixation (98.3% cotton, 1.7% spandex,

50 g/ 100 yds), or Heirloom Breeze (30% wool, 69.6%

cotton, 0.4% lycra, 50 gms/ 95 meters), one ball.

Photo above shows the socks knit in Heirloom Breeze.

Needles:

Two 24” circular needles in the size that gives

you the correct gauge, probably size 3 or 4.

Gauge:

25 stitches = 4” (10 cm)

Newborn, (3 months, 6 months)

Start with the toe

Using two circular needles, provisionally cast on (see

next page for instructions) 11 (13, 13) stitches, using the

cable of the second needle in place of the usual waste

yarn. Let one needle rest while you knit the next 5 rows

with the other one: Row 1: Knit 11 (13, 13) stitches,

turn. Row 2: Slip 1 stitch as if to purl, purl 9 (11, 11),

knit 1, turn. Row 3: Slip 1 stitch as if to purl, knit 10

(12, 12), turn. Repeat rows 2 and 3 once. You have a

Sizes:

Leg

Resume working in rounds with both needles. Slip 1, *knit

to end of needle, pick up and knit 1 in intersection

between needles, repeat from * once. Knit 1 round.

*Purl 8 rounds. Knit 6 rounds, repeat from * twice. Purl

12 rounds. Bind oﬀ loosely. he top will curl under, to

the inside of the sock.

Provisional cast-on

Bring the yarn to the front if

knitting and the back if purling. Slip the next stitch to

the right needle, and move the yarn back to the side it

came from. Replace the slipped stitch back on the left

needle, and turn work. You have now wrapped the yarn

around the throat of the slipped stitch. When you come

to the stitch later, you will lift the wrap up onto the

left needle and knit or purl it together with the stitch it

wrapped.

Make 1 left:

his cast-on uses two circular needles. Perhaps you have

done a provisional cast-on before, using waste yarn. In this

more eﬃcient version, the cable of a second circular needle

neatly replaces the waste yarn.

One needle will be referred to as the needle , and the

other needle as the cable, because these are the only

parts you will pay attention to during the cast-on.

Lift the strand between the stitches and

place it on your needle with the leading leg in front.

Knit it through the back leg, which will twist it to

the left.

Make 1 right:

With your right hand, hold the tail of yarn and the

needle beside the middle of the cable. Tension the yarn

in your left hand. Scoop a loop of yarn from under

the cable with the needle. Now scoop a loop of yarn

from above the cable with the needle. Repeat these two

motions, scooping a loop from under and then from

above the cable, until you have the required number or

a few more on the needle. Once you begin knitting, you

can let the extras fall away.

Lift the strand between the stitches and

place it on your needle with the leading leg in back.

Knit it through the front leg, which will twist it to

the right.

his method sets you up to knit from both sides

without having to pick up stitches from waste yarn.

he photo above shows the stitches as they look after

being cast on. Note that the stitches on the cable are

alternately mounted, leaning right, then left, etc. You

will knit these stitches through the front leg, then the next

through the back leg, just the ﬁrst time you meet them.

Socks in Cascade Fixation

If you wish to use other yarns . . .

he Spandex or Lycra content of the two yarns

suggested makes these socks light and springy, easy to

get on and oﬀ those little wiggling feet, and helps them

stay put, but you may use any yarn that will give similar

gauge. If you wish to use a yarn which gives a larger

gauge, you will have a larger sock - one which will ﬁt

a larger baby. Since babies grow, this shouldn’t be a

problem. You can also work the “Life Rings” in diﬀerent

colors for a diﬀerent look, or use a self-patterning yarn

for another look altogether.
