Until they unfold them and a cute piggy face and adorable ears are looking back at them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePiggy Socks are a pink pair of pig socks with a face on each foot: two knitted ears, a Swiss darned snout, and small embroidered eyes that look faintly pleased with themselves. They come in child, teen and adult sizes, so there is a pair for every member of the family.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnderneath the ears, this is a classic sock, knitted from the cuff down with a heel flap and gusset. The pig is added at the very end, so there is no colourwork to manage while you are turning a heel. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, the child size takes a single ball of yarn, and the foot is knitted to measure, so the socks fit the particular child you have in mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlain socks get lost under the bed. Socks with ears get worn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned by Jane Burns.
