Les Arts Déco Socks feature a modern take on a traditional twisted-stitch stocking. Use a solid or a semi-solid yarn in a lighter color to best display the intricate twists and turns!

The highly stylized central shield motif paired with the geometric side panels found in Les Arts Déco Socks are reminiscent of Art Deco, a design style that flourished in the 1920s - 1940s, and which is often characterized by rich colors, bold geometric shapes and lavish ornamentation.

This pattern provides 4 separately charted sizes (60, 64, 68, and 72 stitches).
