Hand knitted socks
Genuinely hand knitted. Needles, yarn, hands. No machinery. Each pair is one of a kind, knitted out in the world and photographed where it was made.
Knitted by hand from cast-on to the last stitch. No machines at any stage.
Wool grown on British flocks, with the origin of every skein written down.
By the harbour, in a café window, on the ferry. Each pair carries where it was made.
Every pair is made once. Love one that's sold? Request one like it.
Knitted in Glasgow, Scotland
In a café window on a wet afternoon
Cast on as the rain came in off the Clyde, and finished three coffees later. The yellow was dyed in a shed in Cornwall; the blue is the colour the sky never quite managed that week.

On a park bench in the West End
A deep moss green, knitted slowly on bright cold mornings. Soft, hard-wearing and ready to be worn in.
Knitted in Portree, Isle of Skye
On the harbour wall
Knitted over a long weekend on Skye, mostly sitting on the harbour wall while the boats came and went. No dye at all: these are the colours the sheep grew.

Over many mornings in a West End café
A stripe for every morning it took. Each colour change marks a different day, a different table, a different conversation overheard.
Choose any pair as a starting point, pick the wool and colour, and give your measurements for a perfect fit.
