Bubbly lace flows neatly into ribbing at the heel, toe, and cuff of these breezy warm-weather socks.

The pattern assumes familiarity with lace knitting and basic cuff-down sock construction techniques. Some testers noted that the double yarn overs can make it difficult to pick up dropped stitches, so you may wish to use a lifeline if you are newer to lace knitting. The lace pattern is currently provided only in charted form.

Four sizes are included:
Extra Small (54 stitches)
Small (60 stitches)
Medium (66 stitches)
Large (72 stitches)

The lace pattern is quite stretchy. If you’re between sizes, choose the smaller one and consider knitting the cuff ribbing on needles one size larger.

Thanks so much to Jeanamaria, nevolik, and my other test knitters.
