New Pattern: Lausox

I'm so honored and blown away at the excitement over this sock. After sharing a few pics of them on Instagram it was time to get the pattern live.

Introducing...

The Lausox.

"Lau" is the Hawaiian word for "leaf" and since I'm making these socks for a lovely Hawaiian native it seemed appropriate.

These socks are knit from the toe up (my favorite method) and also introduces a brand new short row heel I've developed. I'm calling it The Ribbon Heel since it looks a lot like the Awareness Ribbons we see everywhere nowadays.

I think my favorite thing about these socks, beyond the custom-dyed colorway, named after the socks, by Black Market Wool, is that they're so delightfully stretchy. The pattern inadvertently creates a ribbing effect so while they're not quite one-size-fits-all they're definitely one-size-fits-MOST.

I hope you love them. It seems like the folks on Instagram do.

Oh, and guess WHAT? If you download the pattern before March 23, you'll get a discount code for 20% off your yarn purchase from Black Market Wool. WOWZERS!

Alright. Go. Knit. Love.
