DIGITAL ITEM -Charlottes Flower Garden sock set

Charlotte´s Flower Garden sock set is only available in English currently.
The set includes three flower inspired colourwork sock patterns. All available in three different sizes.

I love all seasons, even the quiet, gloomy days of Winter, filled with endless hours inside knitting, while enjoying the comfort of our homes. But by the end of Winter, I am seriously craving some colour to help blast away the continual grey of the skies and I long to see some vibrant flowers again. So I have grabbed my needles and colourful yarn and created some sock patterns for us to enjoy some early blooms. Whatever the season or weather!

There are three sock patterns included in this flower inspired sock set.
1. Dutch Courtyard socks, feature small, easy to knit, flower motifs inspired by the Spring flowers that can be see on the courtyards and balconies in Europe. Perfect for colourwork sock beginners!
2. Cosy Rosy socks have a repeating, traditional Rose motif sock pattern and look great in any of your favourite two contrasting colour combos.
3. Playful Pansy socks are possibly the most colourful pattern of the set and are inspired by all the different pansy flower colour combos you can see in Spring.

All 3 patterns are knit from the top down with a ribbed cuff. They have a `no wrap` short row heel and feature various stranded colourwork floral patterns running throughout the leg and foot. The toes are finished by grafting stitches together. These patterns are written using the magic loop circular needle method (but can be knit with 23cm (9 inch) circulars or DPNs).

There is a video tutorial included for the short row heel pattern.
