Latinka was inspired by my daughter, who is at the age of starting to dress very girly.
She likes everything lacy and princess-like. I wanted to design a pair of socks for her that fits this princess style.
Latinka is worked from the toe up, featuring a wedge toe, and a round heel. There is a lace panel running up the outer sides of the socks, half of which starts at the toe, and the other half at the heel flap. The two halves join at the leg and continue up to the cuff.
This pattern comes in two different age ranges –
both Child (blue knee highs) and Adult (yellow mid-calf).
When you buy the pattern, you get BOTH!
