Botanical Vines is a sock design inspired by the serenity of a lush garden. Large, stylized leaves—evoking the graphic foliage of the monstera—unfold in a jacquard pattern on Autorayante™ self-striping yarn in delicate shades of dusty pink and soft green. A poetic and contemporary design, perfect for adding a colorful, botanical touch to your knitting.

Notes: This pattern can be knitted using a set of 5 double-pointed needles (DpNs) or circular needles. For double-pointed needles, divide half the stitches between needles 1 and 2 and the other half between needles 3 and 4.

Since the pattern involves several consecutive stitches in the same color and requires carrying the contrasting yarn behind the work, I designed it using the Ladderback Jacquard technique. A photo and video tutorial are provided in the pattern.
