As I finished up these leaf lace socks and I tried them on, my big ole feet reminded me of lily pads; so off I set to find a crochet pattern for lotus flowers. Found it on Make My Day Creative. The sock pattern was what first attracted me to the Knit Noro book, and the interesting vest constructions have got me plotting my next big yarn purchase. Mentioned in the last textile post, the socks are knit in malabrigo sock, fresco y seco. The lilies use embroidery floss, separated into 3 piece strands; a .85mm crochet hook and attach to the socks via safety pins for lots of accessory options: pin them to a hat or wear them like a brooch.
