Pea shoot socks

This pattern was inspired by the early summer garden, full of promise and green brilliance! I have always found pea shoots especially delicate, and wanted to design a motif that would bring them to mind, as if they were climbing all along your socks. In full length or in their shortie version, I hope these make you smile and become your favourite gardening socks! This pattern includes a mid-calf version as well as a shortie (ankle) version. This pattern is written and charted, and knit cuff/top down. COUPON CODES: Pay what you can! You can pay full price if you can/want to and if so: thank you!
