Pattern is weirdly small. The pattern illustration is knitted in a very small size and bigger sizes don’t have the edge to edge lace appearance. It does appear that it is intended to be stretched tight around, but then it has a shortrow heel which definitely won’t fit my heel in a lower stitch count sock. I wouldn’t mind the smallness of the pattern if it said so up front (small feet need socks too), but it’s irksome to find that your size M sock will have an unexpected border. M is what I would normally consider an S and a normal M is an M+ in this pattern. Each size up just adds more stockinette to the border. The lace is a 16 stitch repeat.
