A fetching lace rib, columns of beads, and a lively cable bring to mind the gentle motion of the cherry blossoms falling from the trees, as they do every spring on my street in Vancouver. The beading technique is very easy - just let the beads rest between stitches.
Suggested yarns: Nature’s Palette fingering weight yarn (sample socks are in Odd Duck #1 colorway), Lisa Souza Sock! or Sock! Merino, or any solid, semi-solid, or subtle handpainted sock yarn. This pattern is not suitable for self-patterning sock yarns.
The pattern requires 672 size 8/0 beads and some type of threader to string the beads. You will also need 2 - US 1/2.25 mm circular needles for knitting socks in the round.
Pattern includes written instructions and charts.
Size: Women’s medium. Leg measures 7.5" from cuff to ankle.
