A Few Pairs of Socks For Sale


In addition to mittens for sale, I have a few pairs of socks that would like to go to a new home. I am offering these socks for sale, not with the intent of making a profit, but rather to ask just a bit above cost to make some money to feed my yarn habit.

If you are interested in purchasing these socks please email me and I will let you know the shipping costs.


Summer Vacation Socks

These socks contain a pleasing mix of blues, greens and yellows. The colour’s name is “summer vacation” and it jumped out at me when I was trying to find something to knit while we were off on our summer vacation.  The pattern is made of a wavy rib that forms a mock cable.


  • Size: Women’s medium-large
  • Content: 75% Superwash Merino Wool, 25% Nylon
  • Care: Machine wash, gentle cycle/tumble dry low, or dry flat
  • Price: $25.00 (CAD) plus shipping costs
 

Snow Crocus Socks

These socks came to life when I spotted the ball of yarn with the colour name “snow crocus”. The name was perfect as the yarn has a beautiful blend of purple, yellow and green, against a light background that brings to mind the colours that are seen when the first crocuses of the year come up. The pattern has a plain back set off by a set of cables running down the front of the sock to the top of the toe.


  • Size: Women’s medium-large
  • Content: 80% Merino Wool, 20% Nylon
  • Care: Machine wash, gentle cycle/tumble dry low, or dry flat
  • Price: $25.00 (CAD) plus shipping costs


Castle Walls Socks

The colour name for these socks, “castle walls”, captures the subtle shades of grey and beige. The touch of alpaca in the yarn makes them a wonderfully soft treat for the feet. The pattern is an all over rib with a cable detail running down the side.

  
  • Size: Women’s medium-large
  • Content: 50% Merino Wool, 25% Superfine Alpaca, 25% Nylon
  • Care: Hand wash, dry flat (unless you don’t mind a bit of felting, then you could machine wash on a gentle cycle and dry flat)
  • Price: $25.00 (CAD) plus shipping costs
