Summer Vine Socks

Originally featured in Knit Now magazine, the Summer Vine socks pattern draws inspiration from the vibrant green vines of twisting ivy gracefully cascading down a garden fence. This lovely design captures the essence of a blooming summer garden, incorporating trails of airy, delicate lace that will add a touch of elegance to your sock collection.

The Summer Vine socks are expertly crafted from the top down, beginning with a cozy ribbed cuff that offers both comfort and style. After the cuff, you will create a stunning cascading lace pattern that flows beautifully down the leg of the sock, infusing your knitting experience with the joy of summer's beauty. The heel is designed using a traditional heel flap, showcasing the attractive Eye of Partridge slip stitch pattern, which not only adds visual interest but also enhances durability. A gusset is incorporated for a perfect, personalized fit that feels wonderful when worn.

Once you have completed the heel, you’ll return to knitting in the round, seamlessly continuing with the charming trailing leaf pattern. This delightful design culminates at the toe with a single lace leaf that adds a whimsical finish to your sock project.

Designed for versatility, the pattern is available in three adult sizes, ensuring that these beautiful Summer Vine socks can be enjoyed by everyone. To aid your knitting journey, comprehensive video tutorials are provided, showcasing the stitches and techniques used throughout the pattern. Whether you are an experienced knitter or a beginner seeking a challenge, this pattern offers a wonderful opportunity to create exquisite socks that are as functional as they are beautiful.
