Frivolous Socks Knitting Pattern Download

Feminine. Decadent. Opulent. Each Frivolous sock starts at the toe and is decorated with an allover lattice stitch. A daring gusset pattern is a secret indulgence. The glass beads dotting the cuff add a shimmer just below the fluttering silk ribbon crowning the cuff. Slip into these remarkable beauties and you'll feel as singluar as Jane Austen's beloved character Emma Woodhouse.
While the overall look is complex, the working of these socks has been streamlined as much as possible. A small steel crochet hook is used to place a bead on individual stitches, eliminating the need to string the beads before knitting commences. The overall stitch pattern is easily memorized, and the gusset cable can be worked without a cable needle, if you choose.
