Pray Love Remember
This sock is part of a club, which is available for purchase. The individual pattern will be available in Sept. of 2017.
“There’s rosemary, that’s for remembrance; pray,
love, remember: and there is pansies. That’s for thoughts.
There’s fennel for you, and columbines: there’s rue
for you; and here’s some for me: we may call it
herb-grace o’Sundays: O you must wear your rue with
a difference. There’s a daisy: I would give you
some violets, but they withered all when my father
died: they say he made a good end”
These socks are for Ophelia, inspired by a combination of rosemary sprigs, and willow leaves which grow “aslant a brook.” Pray, love, remember.
