Nancy Bush says about these elegant socks, “These socks began with part of a simple lace pattern from an Estonian knitting book, and adding seed stitch columns between the lace pattern. The half-handkerchief heel shaping echoes the small “V” shapes in the openwork pattern, while the French toe shaping is a vintage technique from Weldon’s Practical Needlework.“
