Little Flowers

Sometimes I start working on a design with the complete vision of what I want to make in my head. This was not one of those times. I had a general idea. I wanted socks. I wanted an all over pattern. I wanted something light and summery, and preferably something that looked good with speckles! So I set out on a quest to make it happen!

I found this beautiful texture pattern that reminded me of little flowers. It was spaced out with a few rows of stocking stitch but when I started knitting my socks the pattern felt too dense, so I added a couple more plain rows, recharted my toes and started again! 

I absolutely love how the pattern turned out! It’s light, summery, and looks awesome in a speckled yarn! If you don’t knit the leg long, they also make fantastic shortie socks like one of my testers made! I named the design Dìtheanan because in makes me think of a wild flower meadow, or daisies on a lawn!

You can get 25% off Dìtheanan with the code FlowerSale until 11.59 pm (UTC) on the 18th of July 2023. The pattern is also on LoveCrafts and Etsy!
