A very easy lace stitch pattern …
and a little bit of colorwork …
The socks are worked toe up with a heel flap and a short row heel. The foot and leg feature an easy meandering stitch pattern that only consists of knit and purl stitches, yarn overs and simple decreases.
The lace stitch pattern is charted and fully written.
The colorwork ‘flowers’ are charted only.
Tips on colorwork and stranded knitting included.

Gauge
