The Autumn Equinox marks the end of the astronomical summer and the beginning of autumn. Traditionally, the autumn equinox is a time to enjoy and be thankful for the fruits that grew during the summer and can now be harvested. It’s the perfect time to go for a walk outside, go apple picking and enjoy the sun on your face. It’s a wonderful time before preparing ourselves for the darker winter months.

As temperatures decrease, trees change colour and shed their leaves. The falling leaves served as inspiration for this pattern. These top-down socks feature a twisted rib cuff, an elegant lace pattern resembling falling leaves, a short-row heel and a rounded toe. These socks will be the perfect companions for sunny autumn days.

This pattern is released as part of a collab with Brambles & Me. The Autumn Equinox colourway is a limited edition colourway and can be pre-ordered for a limited amount of time!
