Happy birthday, September babies!

Asters are September's birth flower. They are almost always a beautiful purple colour with a pale yellow center, and I got the idea that each sock should look like an individual petal in a larger flower

Rather than stripes, I designed the yarn to be a beautiful non-pooling mix of purples, with a "micro skein" of yellow at one end. For these socks, we added the yellow one row before starting the toe decreases so that the petal ends at the center of the flower.

September Asters are the ninth in our year of birth flower yarn, based on the flowers traditionally associated with each month.
