These socks were created a long time ago in dk weight yarn, but now it is their time to shine. The simple flower motif reminded me a lot of the iconic allium flowers in Minecraft, hence the name. Easy, repetitive colourwork with a little pop of colour to brighten things up. Perfect summer knitting!

Sizes 1 (2, 3, 4) with a stitch count of 48 (60, 72, 84). The foot circumference at the suggested gauge is 13.5cm (16.5cm, 20cm, 23cm).

The smallest size work perfectly well for adult socks in a dk weight. Aim for a 24 stitch gauge to get a 20cm foot circumference.
