❓ FAQ

How stiff is the frill?

It stands out slightly but does not collapse. After the first wash it lies softer; anyone wanting it upright should dry the sock flat and pull the edge into shape by hand.

How do they differ from the lace pair?

The shaft. Here it is knitted opaque and shows nothing; on the floral lace pair the whole surface is openwork. Both have the frill, it just sits on a different ground - opaque reads more classic, lace distinctly more open.

How high do they sit?

Just above the ankle, so well below the calf. They are made as ankle socks and not as knee-highs - under long trousers they disappear completely.

What does one size mean here?

Leg Avenue lists one size as EU 34 to 40. With socks that matters less than with stockings: the cuff stretches, and the length hardly counts, because the foot is the only fixed point.

Which shoe goes with them?

Anything with a visible instep - pumps, straps, platforms. The appeal lies exactly in the edge between sock cuff and bare leg; a high shaft hides it.

What do you do when a stitch ladders?

A drop of clear nail varnish at the top and bottom end of the ladder stops it at once. On patterned yarn the spot barely shows, because the eye follows the pattern anyway.

How are they washed?

By hand in cold water or in a laundry net on a delicate cycle, then dried flat. No dryer and no fabric softener - both take the tension out of the yarn, and the cuff goes slack.

What goes with them?

A piece from for down there and anything that leaves the leg free; under for the top you will find what can be worn over them.
