I finished these lovely socks up back in Feb and made a little matching pair when we found out I was pregnant. I love how small they look compared to mine. The socks are Web socks from Interweave in Malabrigo Sock Yarn. And for the baby version I just adjusted the number of stitches accordingly.

Because this swap was a small group of friends, those that are geographically close are getting together tomorrow for the reveal and Madame Purl and I will be 'calling in'.
