Child's First Sock in Shell Pattern
by Nancy Bush
Directions for this project inKnitting Vintage Socks, shown below. This sock pattern is a modified version of the original from 1899. Nancy Bush has taken the original child’s sock pattern and worked it to fit a small woman’s foot. The French heel and flat toe make this sock not only sturdy to wear but pretty to see. Shown in Dancing Tap.
