I have chosen to set-up a pay what works system, which is a way to ensure a balance between financial accessibility and a fair evaluation of the designing work. All my patterns are listed at full price, which best reflects the work put into them ; if need be, use one of the codes below that works best for you!

Sunny spring days are the best: soft wind, gentle clouds passing by, birds singing and flowers dancing in the garden…
These socks are just like such days: easy and mindless, with just enough texture here and there to keep the knitting interesting while allowing your mind to take a well-deserved rest!


These socks are knit from the bottom up in the round, and feature an afterthought heel. The texture is made using slipped stitches and tiny cables, and the flowers are embroidered at the top.
This pattern is both written and charted. It includes distinct instructions for each size, and a photo tutorial explaining the flower embroidery.

Required materials:

Yarn: fingering-weight yarn ; 1 skein for MC, 30g for CC1 and about 2 meters for CC2

Needles: 2.5 circular needles ; this pattern is written for magic-loop but can be easily adapted to DPNs

Other: a yarn or tapestry needle, and a progress keeper or some scrap yarn

Gauge: 32 sts for 10cm ; the pattern tells you how to adapt the pattern to your foot’s length

Sizes: S (56 sts ; 17,5cm cuff circumference) / M (64 sts ; 20cm cuff circumference) / L (72 sts ; 22,5cm cuff circumference)
