One of my favourite all time songs is “Sunday Girl” by Blondie. Even though it’s one of the songs I am not quite sure what it is about – a pretty girl whose boyfriend is cheating on her? Never mind! I love the melody and enjoy to sing along. For me it’s the perfect summer, sun, easy-going party song, so I picked a cheerful colour and a lacy pattern for my Sunday Girl Socks.

The socks are worked from the cuff down and feature a hybrid fleegle heel, i. e. heel flap and gusset are integrated into the leg and are knit in the round.

You can choose to work the lace patterns from the charts or the written instructions.

Sizes: Women’s M and L to fit leg circumference 18.25 (21.75) cm 7.25 (8.5)”. Leg length including heel results in 24 cm (9.5”) when knit as given in the pattern. Leg length and foot length are adjustable.

Material: 1 skein of fingering weight yarn with a yardage of approximately 366 m (400 yds) per 100 g.
Notions: 2 stitch markers, cable needle, darning needle.

Gauge:
30 sts /40 = 10 cm/4” in Lace pattern, blocked
30 sts /40 rows = 10 cm/4” in Stockinette Stitch, blocked

The Sunday Girl pattern is also availabe as part of the Eight Days a Week collection.
