Adige socks were inspired by the beautiful Italian city of Verona, the city of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, and the river Adige which runs through Verona. The romantic lace sock is something that modern-day Juliet might wear on a stroll along the riverside admiring the pink sunset.

Adige is a cuff-down sock with a heel flap and gusset. The pattern is written for magic-loop method. The lace pattern is charted.

The pattern is in English.
