The name of the Lakolk socks comes from a beach on the Danish coast. They are an ode to the ever-changing but still constant landscape created by the sand, the sea and the light.

The digital download contains the pattern in English and Swedish. The Finnis version is available in the book 52 x villasukat OSA II.
