Openwork Knee High Socks
Hi there! These fun knee-length socks in a variation of the Triangle Stitch are made bottom-up so you can try them on as you go. They start with the solid toe, work upward to the EASY solid heel for comfort (the heel is simply increases & then decreases, THAT’S IT!), then up to the knee. They look fantastic with a dark knee-length skirt & ankle boots.
This original pattern design in US crochet terms may not be distributed or sold as your own, but feel free to sell finished socks made from it.
