Ready for a sock that will keep you on your toes? These Celtic Climbers may look challenging, but a predictable lace repeat creates a lovely dramatic effect without too much effort. The lacy Celtic design begins at the toe and climbs up the leg, while 3x1 ribbing on the rest of the foot makes for a perfect fit. Worked symmetrically, each foot becomes a mirror image of the other. It’s time for a climb!
