About Quaintrelle
Quaintrelle is worked from the top down and features a delicate slip stitch cable pattern on the front of the leg and top of the foot, and ribbing on the back of the leg and heel flap. The sock ends with a star toe. The stitch pattern is both written and charted and the instructions are needle-neutral to accommodate your preferred method of working in the round. This combination of stitches produces a stretchy fabric, consider working 1 circumference smaller than usual.
