While at a fibre fair, I noticed the beautiful nature dyed yarn from Elderberry Yarns, dyed by Master Nature Dyer Patricia Donnelly. That night, I dreamed of flowers at the side of the road, the petals curling and the brown centres. The idea was born to knit a 3D stranded flower, and after much experimenting with stitches and beads, Roadsidea socks were born!
Sturdy like hiking socks, but with an elegant touch. Fancy, but no nonsense!
