#S30 Lace Maple Leaf Socks

For these socks, I interpreted the maple leaf of Canada in a textured lace stitch. The socks begin at the cuff with a crown-like pointed bias-ribbed border, symbolizing the ties the self-governing country of Canada still retains to the British crown. The ribbed border then transitions into a field of overall maple leaves encircling the leg. Then the heel transitions into the bias-ribbed pattern. The maple leaves are carried into the instep and taper to a point as the solid fabric of the foot takes over to complete the sock.
