"THESE ARE are an everyday rib sock, with a section of cute little flowers created using a bobble and slip stitch pattern which is fun to work," says Francesca Hughes. “It's a great project to use up tiny scraps of yarn, while playing with a couple of interesting techniques.
Add more rows of plants and you could easily have a hanging basket worth! A sporty stripe around the top is also a nice way to use those contrasting colours."
PATTERN NOTES
On the Grassy Verge round, you will work cables to bring the stems together. The slipped stitches are long enough that they can be twisted without a cable needle if you prefer.
