This is not an easy pattern and require some attention.

Flower & Fields socks is the companion of the Flower and Fields Shawl (published in Making Stories issue 9 and also available as a single pattern).

It is a toe-up sock with a flower bud pattern and a short row heel. The pattern has the left and the right side sock knitted differnt.

In order to improve the fit of the short-row heel and small inset in included.

The heel is half in stokinette and half in garther stitch.

Since this sock is all about texture I suggest to use a plain colour with no or very little speckles/variegation.
