Cristaux Bleu Socks are inspired by a beautiful blue lagoon pool I visited on the stunning island of Lanzarote in the Canary Islands. The Lava bubble pools are so clear and mirror-like in appearance and the Blue lagoon swimming pools are so inviting, I hope one day to visit that glorious island once again!.

These socks feature a pattern panel which is both, easy to memorize and simple to knit but produce a very interesting pattern, carried down the full length of the sock, designed for any experience level of sock knitter. The instructions for the Pattern panel are both written and in chart form.
