The Emma socks are the first pair in The Emma Collection, based on Jane Austen’s classic novel.They begin with a lace cuff knit flat, and continue in the round after picking up stitches along the edge of the lace. With an Eye of Partridge heel flap, a simple eyelet lace detail on the toe, and a princess sole, these are sure to appeal to the “handsome, clever, and rich” in us all.
