Thank you for popping by! I’d love to introduce you to my new pattern Botanical Socks a collaboration with Botanical Yarn

These delicate socks are an homage to vintage botanical prints. I love the detail depicted in the prints of tender shoots and ornate blossoms!

When Sophie of Botanical Yarn sent me the special Knit City Calgary sock set it was the perfect palette and inspiration for these socks.

Twisted stitches, and little traveling 1 x 1 cables are reminiscent of a lovely selection of botanical clippings! All over texture makes for a rhythmic, fun and engaging sock knitting experience. And the stretchy nature of the stitch pattern creates a cozy, snug fit. Lots of space to play with contrast colours to add a little extra sweetness to these pretty socks!
