Last week my daughter asked me to knit a pair of anklets for her out of some yarn that I had dyed. We started searching stitch pattern books, and she and I settled on a lovely chevron stripe pattern with lacy yarn overs. As I started knitting this pattern, I realized that it closely resembled the talented Grumperina's, famous Jaywalker socks. The difference in the pattern being the lacy effect of the yarn over increases. I offer this pattern here, not to steal any of Grumperina's well deserved fame, but to offer a fun variation. I am quite sure that my pattern is not nearly as well written as Grumperina's. Hopefully, it is not so poorly written as to cause too much angst to the knitter! If you find any errors, please let me know and I will happily correct them. The pattern is in the sidebar. Enjoy!
Those are asome great summer socks!
