Waltz of the Flowers
Stretch your colorwork muscles with these socks! A climbing motif of flowering vines wraps around these toe-up treats that are perfect for showing off jewel-toned yarns.
These bright shorty socks are wonderful for chasing away dreary weather blues. Worked in soft lemon and dreamy lavender yarn from Cedar Hill Farm Co, toe-up construction with German Short Row shaped gussets and heel gives these socks a cozy fit. An optional increase chart has been included to adjust the leg fit and accommodate longer socks, if desired.
Please note: the Designer is not responsible for spontaneous outbursts of dancing and/or singing that may occur while wearing these socks. This condition is known as spring fever and should melt away of its own accord once summer arrives.
