This design reminds me of the tender tendrils that so many plants have - the scrumptious and crisp snow peas, the juicy and delicious grapes from the vines and many, many other plants.

There are two charts in the pattern. One chart is suited to using only one contrast colour and the other chart allows for using different colours to work each motif. A great way to use up some scraps, minis or leftovers.

These socks are knit toe up with a heel flap and gusset. The instructions for the construction of the socks are written and the colour work pattern is charted.

Thank you to Mayellago, Eternalknitter and yarnymama and other testers.
A huge thanks also to Condichick, yarnymama and SNSSO for their ongoing valued advice, guidance, feedback and encouragement.
