Frou Frou Socks
The Frou Frou Socks are worked from the toe up using the Magic Loop technique. Choose from three beautiful cuff options—from simple and elegant to delightfully playful. A Shadow Wrap Short Row Heel with gussets creates a comfortable, well-shaped fit, making these socks as lovely to wear as they are to knit.

Recommended Yarn:
Fingering weight sock yarn, approx. 440-460 yds / 400-420 m per 3½ oz / 100 g, in solid or semi-solid colour. Variegated yarn is not recommended because the lace pattern could get lost.
