Scilla siberica – Siberian squill
Native to southwestern Russia, the Caucasus and Turkey.
One of the earliest spring flowering bulbous perennial which brightens
up the landscape with its bright blue nodding flowers.

The pattern has both written and charted instructions for toe up and cuff down construction and comes in stitch sizes 56 (S), 64 (M) and 72 (L) sts.

The pattern is written for magic loop, but can easily be modified for double pointed needles.

The pictured socks are knitted toe up, on the cuff down version the pattern is upside down due the nature of lace knitting.
