Summer berries, ripe for picking. As soon as I saw this stitch pattern, I was inspired. The berries travel down the sock on their brambles. Then, when you have colorways with names such as Mochaberry and Ripe for Pickin', well, enough said.

Congratulations! I love the look of this sock. I can't wait to stashdive for it!
OMG! Thanks so much for sharing this with me, IGK! I totally didn't expect it and I was surprised to find it in my inbox today!
Love ya!
You are so talented! This pattern is just gorgeous. I need to knit Cotty first though......still digging through the STR stash to find the right skein!
Okay, now I've gone from "don't know what to cast on next" to "waaaay too many to choose from" with this and Cotty...
Love the new pattern!
Blackberries are my favorite berry- showing us a picture of that pie is really making me want to go out and buy one!
I'm like Kathy. Too many to choose from. You know I'll cast on after I finish my Cottys. The plus side is that Cottys are super duper fast in sportweight.
Super gorgeous socks! I'm putting the pattern in my queue right away.
Mmmm... blackberry pie. Love all the berries, esp. when they're in season.
Another gorgeous pattern I'll be favoriting on Ravelry!
Is there a way to get a pie with purchase of the pattern? Lovely socks, but right now, the pie is making me drool.
Mmmm....now I want pie. And more sock yarn.
Hehe..I want some pie too ;) I was going to use Jezebel, but some others are...so..I may look for the perfect yarn on my trip...vacation yarn LOL!
Another gorgeous pattern! I'm sure it'll be jumping into my shopping cart soon. I'm already running through my stash in my head picking the perfect yarn :-)
I love your new pattern--congratulations! And your photos are wonderful too!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I love all your patterns, but this may be my favorite so far.
