Ernouvé
Our island language is all but dead, but is a form of Norman French and is very close to Cornish, Breton and according to my Great Uncle even Sicilian! It’s highly possible as it has it’s roots in Latin along with many languages. There are steps being taken to try and save the language, but currently only 2% of the population speak he language with any fluency.
This top down sock has a row of leaves and buds that work their way down the back of the calf and into the heel flap, while lacy stripes work their way down the instep. Finished with a round toe and then kitchenered to close this sock is a breath of fresh Spring air to knit for yourself in the midst of Winter.
If you want to make it bigger, I would suggest going up a needle size, though you will need to allow for more yarn.
