General Country Sports
This pattern (along with most of my earlier work) was retired in the summer of 2022. However, it may be available for a few days once or twice a year. Read on for details!
In the summer of 2022, I realized that maintaining a back catalog of hundreds of patterns was kind of overwhelming. I couldn’t do it and still release new things. So I took my old patterns down so I could keep doing new work.
Since then, a handful of my favorites have come back, and lovely new things have come out. But the vast majority of the old patterns are retired and will no longer be generally available.
However, enough folks have asked about some old favorites that I’m planning to make many of the retired patterns available for a few days once or twice a year (most likely in late spring and then again in the fall around Thanksgiving).
- If you see the buy buttons on this page, you’ve caught it on one of the days it’s available, and you’re welcome to grab it!
- If you don’t see the buy buttons on this page, then it’s not currently available.
- If you want to hear when the retired patterns will be available, subscribe to the mailing list or patreon, or keep an eye on my instagram.
For cycling and general country sports, men wear knickerbocker suits of tweed, Norfolk or short jackets, heavy ribbed golf stockings, stout russet laced shoes, and cloth caps or soft felt Homburg hats.
Etiquette for All Occasions
Mrs. Burton Kingsland, 1901
I’m not all that sure I do much that falls under the heading of general country sports. But I am a big fan of excellent socks. And these (sized for both ladies and gentlemen, because everyone needs a good sock) fit the bill quite nicely. They’re thick enough to be comfy on a long hike (or curled up at home in front of the fire, I won’t tell), and the cables are delightfully dramatic.
