Lucrezia

The Lucrezia socks are knitted from the top down and commence with an elegant twisted rib cuff which neatly travels into the all-over pattern for the leg and foot.

Both cosy yet light, decorative but functional they are the perfect sock as the weather begins to warm. Designed to be seen rather than hidden these delightful lacy socks are a great pattern for anyone looking to move on from basic stocking stitch sock knitting.

The socks start with a German Twisted Cast on, feature a standard heel flap, and gusset with adjustable foot length, and finish with grafted toe – full instructions can be found for techniques at the end of the pattern.

The Lucrezia socks are named for the character of Lucrezia Warren Smith from Virginia Woolf’s novel, Mrs Dalloway, written 100 years ago.
