Mirabella Lace Socks
Pattern: Mirabella, my own pattern
Yarn: Baruffa/Lane Borgosesia Aerobic in 61816 Lavender
Needles: US1 dpns
Here it is! I really like the way they came out. They're so comfy I'm having a hard time giving them away to my SIL, but ultimately I will. After washing them, of course!
I've created the pattern for the size I made (8.5" around the widest part of the foot). If you're knitting the pattern, please let me know what you think of the directions, images, yarn substitutions (Aerobic isn't found everywhere) and most importantly, any errors. Huge thanks go to Wendy for providing the basic toe-up pattern, and Marnie for sizing questions.
They're gorgeous socks! Thanks so much for sharing the pattern. I think I'm actually going to downsize them a bit. (My foot is 8.5" around, and I'd like some negative ease.) But that can easily be accomplished by knitting to a tighter gauge. :-)
By the way, the file downloaded and opened really quickly for me. Maybe it's because I'm used to working with the monstrous Rogue pdf lately, but it didn't seem all that huge to me.
Thanks for the pattern! They look beautiful and I look forward to making them....someday. :)
The PDF came out great! Thanks for all of your hard work and sharing. I have to track me down some Baruffa now :D
I have enjoyed seeing these socks progress, and I heart you for not making it an all-over lace pattern (it will go faster that way!). Nicely done.
Thanks so much for such a beautiful pattern! Gorgeous - I will definitely be knitting them!!
I am definitely going to make these at some point... They are beautiful! Thanks for sharing the pattern :)
Such pretty, pretty socks! And so is your Drooping Elms scarf!

Beautiful socks! Too, too pretty...she's going to need some plain mary janes to show off the pattern.
