Milanese Lace
Oh lord I think I'm in love. I had seen this pattern one of the Barbara Walker's Treasuries and thought it might make a great sock pattern. The pattern spirals around and it is noted it works well in circular knits. But I never got any further then thinking about it. The new MagKnits is out and there is the Milanese Lace pattern. This may become Penn's socks. I will see if she likes the pattern. As given the pattern is toe up, but I am a cuff down kinda girl. So I will go with my basic sock and use the pattern stitch. If the socks were for me, I might give toe up a shot. But I want them to be really nice as they are a gift.
Check out the rest of the Magknits patterns, and look back at the archived patterns. The very popular Jaywalker sock came from Magknits.
I like those socks, too...adding them to my 'to-knit' list that is growing by leaps and bounds ;o)
The socks are great! They may make me reconsider my aversion to making socks. Can't wait to see them when you are done.
I didn't take particular notice of the Milanese Lace pattern in the BW Treasury, but I have to agree that the socks on Magknits look very appealing (although it's a little hard to see the details).
Greets to the webmaster of this wonderful site! Keep up the good work. Thanks.
