The Knitter

Rain Runners

THESE LACY socks from the DROPS design team are wonderfully soft and fluffy yet hard-wearing, thanks to the use of a blend of superfine alpaca, Peruvian Highland wool and nylon. DROPS Nord is a sportweight yarn, and is available in a range of elegant colours. The sock design is knitted top-down in an airy, mesh-like lace stitch pattern, and instructions are given for three foot sizes.
