The inspiration for these socks came from a memory of the traditional French lace, as used on the many beautiful items of table linens available at the French Markets. Oh to be meandering through those picturesque streets of the stunning and colourful villages!

This sock boasts a really stunning lace panel pattern, repeated throughout the leg and down the top of the foot.
