Desde pequena que sempre estive em contacto direto com a natureza, fosse no campo ou na praia. Em miúda, acompanhava o meu avô Manuel nas lides do campo, e com ele eram sempre garantidos passeios pelo campo, atravessando matagais, a horta ou o pomar. Graças ao meu avô e aos meus pais desde tenra idade fui conhecendo as flores silvestres que decoram os campos da mais variada paleta de cores, umas mais garridas, outras mais suaves, mas todas elas lindas.
Estas meias foram inspiradas nesses passeios e nas flores de rosmaninho, uma das minhas flores silvestres preferidas, pela sua cor, forma fora do comum e pelo seu cheiro absolutamente inebriante.
Desenhadas para serem tricotadas em circular usando o método anel mágico (magic loop), tricotam-se da biqueira para o calcanhar e na perna estão representadas as flores do rosmaninho. A meia direita é distinta da esquerda pelo desenho das folhas na zona lateral do peito do pé.
Para combinar na perfeição, usei o PósPés, o maravilhoso fio para meias tingido à mão artesanalmente pela Dyed by Alfinete.

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always been in close contact with nature, either by the countryside or by the beach. When I was a kid, I used to keep my grandfather company whenever he was doing his chores around the house and the farm. Long walks on the countryside were always guaranteed, we used to cross hills covered in long wild bushes, the crop fields or the orchard. Thanks to my grandfather Manuel and both my parents, since an early age, I started to become acquainted with wild flowers and plants that decorated the hills and land in the most variegated color palette, ranging from the softer tones to the brighter and vivacious ones, all of them full of beauty.
These socks were inspired by those countryside walks and particularly on rosemary flowers, one of my favorite wild flowers, because of its color, unusual shape and their absolutely delightful scent.
Designed to be knitted in the round, using magic loop, they are knit toe-up and the leg has a lace panel that represents the rosemary flowers. The right sock is different from the left one because of the leaf design on the side of the foot.
For a perfect combination, I used PósPés yarn, the wonderful new sock yarn hand dyed by the lovely Dyed by Alfinete.
