Cheery lace knee-highs are the perfect things to brighten up a Spring and Summer outfit. Lace carries all the way around the foot to create a very stretchy sock that will easily fit a variety of sizes. This pattern is ideal for trying on as you go, and calf shaping and elastic make sure that these stockings stay in place.
