Meerschaum Socks
This pattern can be found in issue 5 of Laine Magazine.
Sachiko Burgin’s Meerschaum socks combine rustic yarn and delicate lace, creating a pair of dreamy socks. The socks are knitted in the round from the cuff down. Beautiful lace sections run down the ankles and feet. The pattern is written for DPN’s but it can be easily adapted to the magic loop method.
