This toe up sock features an easy cast on and a flat toe. The heel is smooth and well fitting, there are no stitches to pick up.

A bold and innovative lace panel runs the length of the sock.

The large holes in the lace panel lend themselves to decoration if you feel so inclined. Run a little ribbon through them to add drama. Look for ribbon about 7mm wide, about two and a half metres should be ample. Velvet ribbon looks nice against wool.

Errata: Row 21 of the heel turning should begin: k24 not k23. This is corrected in version 1.1 of the pattern.

Instalment two for the Vintage Purls Summer Sock Club 2009.
