I wrote this lacy sock pattern, Sequoia, as the December/January pattern for the Six Sox Knitalong group. It’s free if you join their Yahoo group. They also have a Ravelry Group. You can find Sequoia on Ravelry here. You can see all of the Six Sox Knitalong patterns in Ravelry here, if you’d like to take a look before joining the Yahoo group. The pattern is written in both English and German, in metric and British units.
I have some photos to share that were taken by a few of the test-knitters.
From top to bottom, you have Linda’s sock (blog in German),
Debi’s socks,
my own cuff,
and Brenda’s sock.
