This pattern is useful if you have aran, brushed chunky or any double knit unsuitable for babies that you want to use up. We sell the socks on our hospital stall and also give them to the medical assessment wards to be given to the patients.

The pattern is originally credited to Kim Dixon Wright, but thanks to Chris from the West Midlands who has sent us dozens of pairs and has now forwarded the pattern to us.
