Do knitters dream of lace-leaf socks?

Apparently, this knitter does.

I was pretty crushed to wake up this morning and realize that the knee-length, frosty-grey, lace-weight malabrigo, lace-leaf patterned socks that I had knitted, was all part of some elaborate dream probably induced by the half-bottle of red wine I consumed while finishing (yet another) cat sweater and before going to bed last night.

Keep in mind, I've never completed a pair of knitted socks yet. Surprisingly, I can remember the details of my dream-socks very well... Perhaps enough to actually knit them—or at least, write them down?

hey--I made you lace-leaf socks!

hehehe

anyways--were you thinking lace leaf? Or candlelight lace?

Laters!

Yes, yes, you made the embossed leaves socks for me--but these dream-socks are very different! I guess, they're more like lace-leaf stockings haha.

As to the lace-leaf pattern... I always think of it as leaves more than candle-light... there's another "variation" that I've always thought was more like candlelight, I'll send it to you when I find it.
