Wisp Socks Knit Pattern

Light, airy, and wispy! Knit up these super simple lace socks for a cool summer look! This is a 7 stitch simple repeating lace stitch. I was inspired by Japanese lace stitch and my happily blooming anemones this spring. I love the wow factor of the finished stitch, but I enjoy how easy it was to work on these anywhere and anytime.
