"These openwork socks are short and comfortable, but delightfully feminine as well. The fiber is a luxurious blend of alpaca, silk and cashmere, which creates a soft layer to huge delicate toes. The lace pattern is a simple two-row repeat worked from the bottom up, organically creating a pretty scalloped border at the top. I like to wear them with sandals or mules during warm weather--a pretty surprise under a flowing skirt or soft pants." from Knitting Lingerie Style
