  • Cyclamen - Socks

    The Cyclamen Socks echo the beautiful organic shapes typical for the Art Nouveau movement. The lace panel running down the side of the leg and foot swirls around, creating a sense of movement and vibrancy.

    The Cyclamen Socks are worked from the cuff down, with the left and right sock being mirrored. They feature a traditional heel flap and gusset.
