After making stranded colorwork socks for Valentine’s Day for the past two years, I wanted to make something with lace and texture this year. These socks have a lacy heart outline and a textured inner heart, and the lace and texture is reflected on the sides of the socks as well.

They can be made with two colors as shown here, or have a little fun and make each heart section a different color!

I decided to call these the Romantasy Socks because escaping with an engaging romantasy book has been my go-to lately, and I thought it would be thematically cohesive to knit these while listening to your favorite romantasy audiobook!
