Fit For A Queen

“There is no limit to Lannister pride or Lannister ambition.” – Catelyn Stark,Game of Thrones

Cersei Lannister is a formidable woman with the pride and ruthlessness of a lion, the sigil of her house banner. Known for their wealth and power, the Lannisters are one of the richest and most powerful families in Westeros. Although they may have the appearance of cables, these socks are as deceptive and clever as Cersei herself. These top-down socks use yarnovers, decreases, and wrapping techniques to only give the illusion of cables. Stacks of golden ‘coins’ are created down the leg of the sock, framed by regal diamonds to produce this stand-out footwear Fit for a Queen. 
Lace patterning is both charted and written.
