Lady of the Sea

The shifting eyelets and mermaid tails seemed all too perfect for the Mermaid Lagoon colorway from Lofty Loops. The combination of speckles and hues make a big splash with these addictively fun socks.
Worked in the round, Lady of the Sea contains both cuff-down and toe-up written directions and a chart for the pattern stitch. The pattern has instructions for an afterthought heel, but you may substitute whatever heel you enjoy using.
The pattern is written for the magic loop method for knitting socks; however, the design could be worked on double-pointed needles or mini-circulars instead should you prefer.
