Introducing a delightful lace sock pattern perfect for beginners! This pattern features both charted and written instructions, making it easy to follow along. The lace design is a modified version of a beautiful wave pattern, primarily stockinette, sourced from The Big Book of Knitting Stitch Patterns. We've carefully expanded it to accommodate the desired stitch count, and mirrored the design for each foot, ensuring the waves flow in opposite directions for a unique and harmonious look.

This toe-up sock pattern incorporates a short-row heel and toe, following the clear guidelines laid out in Priscilla Gibson-Roberts’ well-loved book, Simple Socks: Plain and Fancy. This method not only enhances comfort but also allows for a seamless aesthetic. Included in the pattern is a brief photo tutorial that guides you through the yarn-over short row technique, perfect for those new to lacework.

Don't forget that an updated version was uploaded on 2009-01-21, correcting an error in the cast-on number. The latest version, 1.1, is now available for download. If you previously downloaded version 1.0, be sure to replace it with this updated version to ensure you're working with the most accurate instructions.

Embrace the joy of knitting with this charming lace sock pattern, perfect for gifting or keeping for yourself. Whether you’re an experienced knitter looking to refresh your skills or a newbie looking for an exciting new project, this pattern is a fantastic addition to your knitting repertoire.
