Gingham Apples Socks

Although I knit these socks from the top down, they are best described as a tree from the ground up. Toe The black yarn is the rich soil for the roots. Foot Two shades of brown look like the bark of the trunk with the words on the sole scratched in. Heel and Turn The pin is for fragrant blossoms and yellow for bees. Leg The red and white apples remind me of a gingham apron. Cuff I used a blue/ green mix to top off the tree with loops for leaves under the sky.
