The Tabra Fleur Socks are a cousin to the Tabra Socks, inspired by their purled instep resembling a blank slate or tabula rasa in Latin. This time, though, they’ve got a lovely flower detail down the front! They also feature a delicate broken rib on the backside of the leg, adding both texture and style.

The pattern is written for the magic loop technique, but you can easily substitute for double-pointed needles if you prefer. They are knit one at a time from the top down and use a short-row/mitered heel and a standard toe, but you can also substitute for your favorite heel and toe with a bit of manipulation.

For this pattern, you should be comfortable knitting in the round. Some skills you may need for this pattern include the long tail cast on, magic loop, Wrap & Turn, and Kitchener Stitch. If you find yourself unfamiliar with any terms or methods in this pattern, I suggest searching for them on YouTube.

Recommended materials include: 100g of your favorite fingering weight yarn (sock yarn with at least 10% synthetic fiber recommended for durability); US 1 (2.5mm) circular needles, 40”; tapestry needle for finishing; measuring tape; and split ring stitch marker (optional).
