Pressed Flowers Socks Kit
Kit for Pressed Flowers Socks designed by Amy Christoffers for our Mondim yarn.
Please note the pattern is NOT included in the kit.
The Pressed Flowers socks are worked from the cuff down to the toe with an afterthought heel. The pattern is written using the magic loop method, please substitute whatever method of knitting a small circumference you prefer. The mosaic knitting Pressed Flowers motif is worked throughout the sock- it is very stretchy which helps give these socks a snug fit.
Finished foot circumference: 8” / 20 cm around; 6 ¼”/ 16 cm cuff to heel
