Since doing a couple pairs of mittens in colorwork I’ve been itching to start a pair of fun socks (as I call patterned socks these days). I wanted to do a pattern using hearts in a sort of Swedish style so I drew up this little design of flowers with hearts as petals. Not sure I’l thrilled with how the dots look between the flowers but I don’t want to rip back what I’ve done. I plan on patterning the whole sock except the toe & heel.
Stats:
Pattern: Sock from Knitter’s Handy Book of Patterns
Design: My Own
Yarn: Sensations Bamboo & Ewe in Charcoal Grey & Red
