New Wave Socks

or purchase through Ravelry or LoveCrafts.

A useful project to use up small amounts of leftover sock yarn (of which I have tons… eek).
These little lacey, wavy socks are ankle height so they knit up quick and are great for the transitioning seasons.
Knit from the cuff-down, these socks feature stripes and a wavy lace pattern that uses just k2tog, ssk and yo. There is just one lace round that is repeated to create the wavy stitch pattern… super easy to memorize!
