Sugar Icing Socks

Before the year is over, I just have one more pattern that I want to release into the world.

This time for these pretty socks, which I originally made back in the summer.

I really wanted something a little more lighter and lacy at the time and I love the cute little mini shell pattern that these sock have. All the rows lined up really reminded me of neat rows of piped icing and so that was the inspiration behind the name.

I couldn't quite decide if I preferred the sock with a regular cuff, or without the cuff and diving straight into the lace pattern. I tried out both and was torn between the two, and in the end I thought I would include both versions in the pattern for you. So now the decision is passed to you!

The lace pattern is very easy to follow and a very short repeat, but I included a knitting chart as well as the written instructions as I always seem to gravitate to a chart where I can. I've also included three sizes which will hopefully cover most eventualities.

I do hope you enjoy it!
