And nothing is more refreshing or welcome during a heat wave than a dip in a cool Swiss lake on a hot Summer´s evening. Inspired by the swans who kindly share the many beautiful lakes with us, I felt these graceful creatures would create an elegant and fun to knit pair of socks. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSizing 1 (2, 3)\u003cbr\u003e\nTo Fit: [foot circumference]: 18-20 (20.5-23, 23.5-25) cm \/ 7.5 (8.5, 9.5) inches\u003cbr\u003e\nFinished circumference: 15.5-17.5 (18-20.5, 21-22.5) cm \/ 6.5 (7.5, 8.5) inches Recommended ease: Approximately 1 inch (2.5cm) of negative ease.
