Jager Sock Set
I looked up synonyms for the word “diamond” since diamonds feature prominently in these sock patterns and the word jager popped up. Jager is apparently an old word whch means the very best of quality within the colour grading of colourless diamonds and “buying these diamonds is a good investment.” So, I think it’s fair to say that knitting this sock set is an equally good investment of your time because the resulting socks are just so cute. The Jager Sock Set includes instructions for toe up socks with 3 toe and cuff options. Mix and match, use 2 colours or more, have fun!
Adult S (M, L)
Finished measurements (unstretched): 7.5 (8, 9)” (stretches comfortably up to about 11 (12, 13)” circumference). Leg and Foot lengths vary depending on knitter’s preference.
I’ve knit my Baguette sample with an 8“ long leg, my Bijou sample has a 6” leg and my Bauble sample has a 2“ long leg.
