Q for sock knitters!

I'm about to embark on my first pair of socks! I have this pattern and this yarn:


I think that it would make some fab knee socks for Miss Vivienne! Here's the question-- can I just follow the basic sock pattern but make them longer? Or is there some special shaping involved?

  • I haven't knit knee-highs for the girls, but I would think you wouldn't have to do any more shaping. Little kids don't have much of a calf. There are others that know more about socks than I do that might think differently.

  • Ditto what Amy said. Those little bird legs don't need any shaping. :)

  • Did you start these yet? I want to actually attempt some socks. Want to do it together? What's the pattern?
