Description

I am so delighted to be able to offer socks now.

My vintage Circular Sock Machine, Bessie, is an Imperia, made from solid chrome and cast iron in circa 1929.  She’s a beaut, but making socks on one of these machines is certainly an art form in itself. It’s taken months and months of learning, but now getting reliable results and with a sumptuously overflowing sock drawer I feel brave enough to offer them for sale now too.

These knit up in a really lovely pattern – almost Christmassy, but not quite, I can see these fitting in perfectly toasting those tootsies in front of an open fire on your next ski holiday.

Made from a good quality 75% Superwash wool/25% nylon blend, these socks are practical and hard wearing and will last and last.  Once you’ve tried knitted socks you’ll never want to wear anything else.  So comfortable, so warm, so long lasting. Featuring a fully ribbed cuff, the ribbing continues across the top of the foot for a great fit but comfy too.

If you like a snug sock and aren’t likely to wash them at superhot temperatures, choose the smaller of the 2 sizes it will fit.  (ie if you’re a 5, choose 4-5).   The smallest size mentioned is the smallest standard foot size they will comfortably fit, but these things have S-T-R-E-T-C-H so will fit at least 1, and often 2 sizes bigger.

If you like a snug sock, aren’t likely to wash them at superhot temperatures, and have average width feet, choose the larger of the 2 sizes it will fit to match your shoe size (ie if you’re a 5, choose 4-5).   If you have wide feet, choose the smaller size to allow for more widthwise stretch. The smallest size mentioned is the smallest standard foot size they will comfortably fit, but these things have S-T-R-E-T-C-H so will fit at least 1, and often 2 sizes bigger.

Buy quality, buy once.

Please note that the pattern will be slightly different depending on the size.
