This is the 2nd design ofmy “Just be U” series.

Summer socks that invite you to dream. Perfect for warm days when you don’t want to go barefoot. The pattern is airy and feminine. The plant fibers of the yarn ensure a pleasantly dry feel and a beautiful sheen.

The socks shown are more like ankle socks and slightly shorter than usual. Of course, you are free to knit your socks to your desired length at the cuff.

The pattern stretches a lot, which is why the socks were knitted on smaller needles than usual. Sizes 40-43 are knitted using larger needles. The model shown is in size 41 and knitted with 2.5 mm needles.

The lace pattern is worked in every round and therefore requires your full attention – at least at the beginning.
