firecatTidal Wave Socks by Deby Lake
Free pattern from South West Trading Company
www.soysilk.com/
Knit from Ellens 1/2 Pint Farm hand-dyed wool/tencel fingering, "Evening Shadows" colorway
This was my first top-down sock project. I did the lace pattern all the way down the front of the sock instead of stopping at the heel. The yarn is luscious and perfect for the simple lace pattern. The top-down construction method was easy; the only problem I had was with the kitchener toe.
Jury's out on whether the socks wear well. (I am hard on socks.)
