Miss Babs has put together lots of [kit options][1] for the entire collection!* *“Might I... might I have a bit of earth? ...To plant seeds in— to make things grow— to see them come alive...” - Mary Lennox, The Secret Garden* This toe-up design transforms your yarn into a leafy vine that steps right off the pages of The Secret Garden. Lace leaves begin at the toe of these lush socks, coming to life and growing up the instep and leg. The main motif is worked as a mirror image between the left and right socks to create a beautifully symmetrical pair. Experience with lace knitting is recommended for this design to cultivate with confidence a verdant treat for any gardener’s feet... no green thumb required! **FINISHED SIZE** Adult S (M, L) **Leg/Foot Circumference:** 7 (8, 9)”/ 17.5 (20.5, 23) cm; fits leg/foot circumference of 8 (9, 10)” / 20.5 (23, 25.5) cm **Leg/Foot Length:** Adjustable to fit **YARN** Miss Babs TARTE (75% Superwash Merino, 15% Nylon, 10% Tencel; 500 yards / 122 grams); 1 skein or 400 yards fingering weight sock yarn *Sample shown in ‘Herbalist’* **NEEDLES** US 1 (2.25mm), or as needed to meet gauge; DPNs or needles for small circumference knitting **NOTIONS** 2-4 stitch markers 1 removable stitch marker Tapestry needle **GAUGE** In Leafy Lace Pattern: 32 sts and 48 rounds = 4” (10cm) In Stockinette: 32 sts and 48 rounds = 4” (10cm) *Tech editing by Cathy Susko.* ***Follow [@paperdaisycreations](https://www.instagram.com/paperdaisycreations/) on Instagram to see what's on my needles!*** [1]: http://www.ravelry.com/groups/paper-daisy-creations
