Crocus Shorties Designed by Barb Brown “I always think nothing says spring like flowers. My mom planted spring flower bulbs everywhere, and the first flowers to open each year were the crocuses. The sight of those always said spring isreally here!! This lace pattern reminds me of those welcome harbingers of the summer to come.”These shorties only require one skein of fingering weight yarn, preferably in a semi-solid colour so that the lace will be able to shine. The delicate lace pattern is very approachable, and they are knit top down with a picot cast-on and heel flap.
