Whether you need durable, comfortable socks for work or for hiking--or even just for shoveling snow--these socks will wear well and keep your feet warm and comfy! Wool breathes well and doesn’t retain odours the way synthetics and cotton do. If all you need is warm socks to keep your ankles from the chill around the house in winter, these will be your favs. In that case, having a nylon blend with wool isn’t crucial but doesn’t hurt. A rustic Aran wool yarn feels great on your toes… .

The Bluestone Bootsock pattern includes a handy chart for measuring your recipient’s feet. As long as you have accurate measurements, even long-distance recipients can have hand knit socks that fit perfectly--a gift that will be warmly received and well remembered.

Bluestone is a written pattern including a measurement chart. These are aran weight adult socks sized from a small women’s to an extra large men’s size. Also included is a chart illustrating the parts of a sock for reference.
