These cozy toe-up socks are inspired by nudibranchs. They were originally knit with sport weight yarn but the gauge is suitable for fingering weight yarn as well.

The undulating diamond lace pattern and its zig-zagging purl columns echo the ruffled mantle and cerata of a nudibranch. The eye of the partridge pattern on the Fleegle heel results in a strong fabric with a great fit.
