Notes

Using up some bits and bobs of stash sock yarn and lightweight handspun to make ‘landscape’ socks for my girl. Lots of fun playing with designing this one and trying to make a chart! Of course the chart doesn’t match the actual sock but…that’s part of the fun, finding out what works as I go along.

Decided to do the stems of the flowers and the flower details with either embroidery or duplicate-stitch. - Inspired by these:
