Beau Soir are lovely feminine socks. They are worked using a lace and garter stitch pattern that results in repeats of lacy chevrons separated by small garter diamonds.

I used 1 ball (100 g) of Isager Sock yarn, a lovely, soft 3-ply yarn processed using the “Easy Wash” method, making it an environmentally friendly option.

The socks are knit from the cuff down to the toe. The heel is shaped using the heel flap method and the toe is grafted together with Kitchener stitch. Instructions are written in the round for Magic Loop Method with markers placed before and after the instep stitches. However a set of DPNS can be used if preferred (the choice of needles is left to the knitter). Foot length is adjustable.

This pattern has been test knit.
