The Lace pattern is supposed to run down the whole sock and be more noticable and be more down the front of the sock. But the intended baby is a boy, I figure I want this to be interesting to look at but not frilly or too prissy. So, I just did the ‘lace’ on the sides of the sock and did not extend it down the foot. So, 4 repeats of the pattern on the cuff. Then turn heel, knit 21 rounds for the foot. Make toe. The pattern calls for a zig zag toe, but I did a kitchener Stitch toe.
All in all, a fun knit. I don’t love the sock yarn to knit with as I find it to be less tightly twisted than I would like with small sharp points. The lace pattern was really easy to memorize and the size of course, leads to a quick knit. In fact, it look so long it would seem because I was busy knitting other things in between each sock. Each sock completion time was closer to 1 day or 1 evening and 1 afternoon.
