Beautiful botanical knits for your feet. Duplicate embroidery (optional) adds some color. Can be knit as shown or in negative colors (pdf has 2 sets of charts for that).

The pdf has several CHARTS WITHOUT WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS, and won’t be suitable for knitters not familiar with sock knitting. You are expected to know how to knit plain heels (any method will do).

Materials: you will need 2.5mm circular needles, and 80-120g. of fingering-weight sock yarn total for mid-calf socks for most sizes; or about 40-60 g of each color.
You will also need tapestry needle and some yarn for embroidery (optional).
Gauge: approximately 30sts X 35rows in 10 cm with fingering-weight yarn.
Size: The socks on the photo are 66sts. around and fit US size 6-8 (or European 36-38); measuring 18 cm long in leg and foot, and 10.5-11 cm across.

You can make the socks wider by adding columns of background color on the opposite side of flower stems. You can also use sport-weight yarn, in which case the socks will be larger in width and in length.If you only need longer feet, start the heel 5-8 rounds lower (sooner) than shown on the chart.
