The Haze socks are worked from the cuff down with a heel flap. Delicate lace and textured motifs travel all around the sock, creating a beautifully cohesive design. The rhythmic patterning keeps the knitting engaging while allowing the yarn to shine, resulting in a pair of socks that are both elegant and practical.

NOTES
These socks are worked from the top down and feature a heel flap. A simple lace pattern is worked around the leg and on the top of the foot. The sole is worked in Stockinette Stitch. The pattern has two choices for the heel flap: you can work a traditional reinforced heel (as shown in the sample) or a lace heel continuing the stitch pattern from the leg.
