This season of the Handmade Sock Society is inspired by the dreamy aesthetics of light academia: a cosy atmosphere of sunlit libraries, antique writing desks, and snug reading nooks. It’s dedicated to the secret worlds inside our journals, our favourite stories, our sketchbooks, and our daydreams.

The Handmade Sock Society is a mystery pattern collection for knitters who cherish handmade socks and delightful surprises. Over six months, I release six secret sock patterns, and members participate in a lively knitalong. It’s always a wonderful experience of discovery and connection.

This is a placeholder for the first mystery sock pattern of The Handmade Sock Society 6. Presales are open at the earlybird price of £10.75 (+ taxes) - 40% off!!

Writing (and knitting!) by hand is a way to escape from the grind of the digital world, into moments of pure tactile creation. The satisfying weight of a fountain pen gliding over creamy parchment, or the gentle rhythm of needles sliding through wool. The subtle aromas of leather-bound journals and polished wood, or the comforting scent of a freshly wound skein.

From the graceful script of a practiced hand to the even stitches of a careful knitter, from the precise impressions of a manual letterpress to the slow shaping of a sock heel, these parallel crafts speak of tradition, care, and the enduring human hope that we can leave our own lovely mark on this world.

Join us and embark on a season of secret sock patterns and the warm camaraderie of like-minded knitters. No matter your skill level, there’s a place for you in the Handmade Sock Society. Whether you’re a curious beginner setting out on your first sock-knitting adventure or an experienced sock enthusiast seeking fresh inspiration, this collection of mystery patterns and our welcoming community of thoughtful makers will nurture your creative spirit.

With six captivating new sock knitting patterns to discover, The Handmade Sock Society 6 is an ode to scholarly pursuits and the romance of the writer’s life.

Each pattern has been thoughtfully designed to balance meditative knitting and interesting details, with detailed instructions and delightful stitch patterns that capture the essence of the writer’s craft. As always, the collection offers a satisfying variety of design elements to explore: touches of elegant lace, engaging textures, and techniques that celebrate our shared heritage of handcraft.
