These little socks are a cute way to use up leftovers or tiny amounts of yarn, or sample a few ECY yarns by using a selection of my 4ply Yarnlings™️. You will need two for the Mini size or one for the Tiny size.

The pattern is written with DPNs in mind due to the very small circumference of the knitting. Using sharp needles will make the heel easier as picking up wraps and passing them over stitches can be a little fiddly. If you are worried about the Tiny sized socks being too fiddly start with I would recommend that you try the Small size one to get an idea of how it all works first.
