This beautiful lace sock was inspired by and created for one of my amazing Boss Ladies, who fearlessly and compassionately leads our team everyday. She is also a passionate vegan who requested a pair of socks made from non-animal based fibres and I jumped at the opportunity to create this gift for her.

The sock looks fancy when it’s all said and done but in reality, it’s a very simple pattern, with an easy-to-memorize lace panel. The lace detail is worked once every three rows with the rest being stockinette stitch. The entire back of the sock is worked in stockinette stitch as well.

Sizing and Yarn Options:

This pattern was written for both Sport weight yarn and Fingering weight yarn, with sizing options given for both. Please note that it’s always an option to adjust needle size to increase or decrease final size of sock.
