With spring coming in sight , i thought it a good idea to let me inspire by ‘springy’ nature for a fresh and brandnew Si Sjo Sock trilogy.

Here is the third of three sock patterns - the first one is Tulips from Holland socks, the second Hi Hyacinth socks.

It is knitted in easy stockinette stitch with regularly special designed Dandelion Seed stitch, with going-with-the-wind dandelion seeds in mind.

The Dandelion sock flourishes at best, when knitted in semi solid dyed yarns.

For pair knitted in size 38/39 I used approximately 70 grams of sockyarn.

The pattern is written for three sizes 36/37 38/39 and 40/41

Heels are knitted in German short rows technique.

The pattern is part of an ebook that finally will contain three Spring Fever Socks patterns.

The pattern comes in a booklet that contains a lot of pictures; if you want to save paper & ink, consider printing the uneven pages only
