My nephew just turned 1 last month, and I'm trying to think of something I could knit for him for Christmas.  I plan to make my brother a hat and my sister-in-law a scarf, but don't know what to make for the little guy.  Any suggestions?

Hi!  I'm knitting my first pair of socks.  The leg, heel, and foot went okay, but now I have to do toe decreases and the pattern just is not making sense to me.  (I think it may have been translated from German.) 

Anyway, I've got sixty (60) stitches divided evenly onto 4 needles.  It tells how to work a round of decreases, then says to repeat these decreases "as given in the chart" until there are eight stitches left. 

The chart says:

On every 4th round ... 1x
On every 3rd round ... 2x
On every 2nd round ... 3x
On every round ... 6x

How many round of decreases am I supposed to work?  And I don't understand how I'm supposed to decrease 6 times on one round.   

Sorry if this is incoherent.  Please let me know if you need more information.
