I tried thinking of a name for this and then my mind wandered to who I could possibly ask to secretly test knit it, my mind landed on Sabine, then I realized how extremely grateful I am to her and ALL the incredible test knitters I have had for years- they are the unsung heroes and this took a different turn and became a tribute to them- hence a quilt of gratitude where each flower represents someone you are grateful to have entered your life. Maybe you have made each of these people socks and have leftovers to represent their flower, maybe you just want to make a pretty pair of socks, make this garden your own.

This pattern is worked in “intarsia/ stranded colorwork in the round” which sounds intimidating, but is nothing more than knitting back and forth alternating between right side knit rows and wrong side purl rows. Only the toes and leg/ cuff are worked in the actual round. Sock is worked toe up to a gusset heel flap. Three colors of yarn are used most rows on the foot.
I tried to work the sock so it gets progressively harder instead of all at once, so skills are built upon.
