ABOUT THE PATTERN
This pattern is for an effortless and elegant pair of socks, yet with an interesting twist. Socks are worked toe-up in the round using the magic loop technique, with a peasant heel added at the very end. My favorite part is the mock ruffles part.

The socks are knitted in four sections - toe, foot, leg and heel.
