Enchanted spring, turned into socks! What a dreamy project to work on.

This design is inspired by nature, especially by blossoming plum and cherry trees. The lace panels on the leg represent sweet flower petals. To emphasize the botanical spring theme, the panels are combined with plenty of little knots across the foot. They remind us of buds and falling petals, carried by the wind. 

The pattern contains charts, written instructions, and a photo tutorial for details.
