I have asked myself a question before, when i started to knit socks. Can i knit or rather am i capable of knitting a very tiny, not Jayne's baby socks or booties that i had done before ? Doll's sock, maybe ? I told myself i cant yet as i m a novice in the world of sock knitting.
Few days ago, Jayne came asking me why am i not knitting sock anymore ? I told her that it is getting warm and humid to knit sock, and also (i think) my sock knitting mojo went wandering away from me . She answered me that is is not true ! as she can see that i am still knitting. Why cant i just knit socks again like last time ! Or how about knit a tweenie tiny sock toy for her instead of normal feet size sock.
Thanks to her "encouragment" and the as usual "Oh-So Pleasey Please look", i started looking for pattern in Ravelry.

I joined the Wee Tiny Sock Swap - Little is more. All it takes is a little amount of stash yarn which i have plenty leftover sock yarns and a short time to create some fun wee tiny socks that i can trade with new friends. One can’t help falling in love with all the wee tiny socks.
I knit this for fun, to please my daughter, at the same time i m challenging myself since now that i had completed 4 sets of baby sock/booties and recently 5 pair of sock. Can i do it now ?
Ever since my second pair of sock, i know how to knit 2 @ 1 Time method, i had stopped using the double point needles to knit sock. In order to knit this small version, i had to go back using again.

I use the leftover yarn for the Spirogyra Socks and Fingerless Mittento knit this tweenie tiny sock, with 2mm (size 0) 5" wooden double point needle.
Many a time, i noticed that my working needle is slightly bent and i have to adjust it gently or swop to another needle or change to the other side to continue knitting.

I enjoyed knitting this very fast finished (just 2 hours or so) project last night. How i wish a normal size sock can get it done within 2 hours. Most of all, I am delighted to see Jayne is very happy to have it hanging on her school bag this morning.

Very innovative of you. Hmmm... can be great Christmas gift too, what do you think?
That is so cute! I haven't try knitting socks before. Always tell myself that SG has no need for knitted socks. Now you've given me new ideas. :)
I love your wee tiny sock:)Hugs Darcy
