The Acantha Socks bloom with lace and mini cables that twist together like tiny ferns, unfurling across a purl background. The motif carries the grace of a fleur-de-lys; it is intricate, regal, yet simple in its rhythm. Knit top-down, these socks offer a gentle way to practice cabling without a needle while creating something that feels timeless.
