Birds, the absolute aerial creatures that they are, are truly fascinating. The variety of their species, their beauty and their originality never cease to amaze me. The lyre birds, for example, have two long feathers resembling vertebras as a part of their tails. These socks have a similar pattern on the top of the feet, starting at the cuff and ending softly at the toes, so it was only appropriate to name them after their feathered inspiration.
Construction
These socks are worked from the cuff down. You’ll knit the cuff first, followed by the leg, both of which are worked in the round. Afterwards, the heel flap and heel turn are worked flat. Stitches are picked up along the edges of the flap to form the gusset, which is then worked in the round, followed by the foot and the toes. The lace stitch pattern is worked from the cuff to the toes, where cables are worked to close the pattern.

Les oiseaux, créatures aériennes par excellence, sont fascinants. La variété de leurs espèces, leur beauté et leur originalité ne cessent d’émerveiller. Les oiseaux-lyres, par exemple, ont deux longues plumes ressemblant à des vertèbres qui font partie de leurs queues. Ces chaussettes ont un motif similaire sur le dessus des pieds, commençant aux côtes et se terminant graduellement aux orteils.
Construction
Ces chaussettes se tricotent à partir du haut vers les orteils, en commençant par la bordure, suivie de la jambe, toutes deux tricotées en rond. Ensuite, le talon et le gousset sont tricotés à plat. Les mailles sont relevées le long des bords du talon pour former le gousset, qui est ensuite tricoté en rond, suivi du pied et des orteils. Le motif de dentelle est tricoté de la bordure jusqu’aux orteils, où des torsades sont travaillées pour fermer le motif.
