The Bush Blossom socks bring the quiet beauty of the Australian bush to life, with a delicate lace pattern down the center and faux cable twists that echo the winding, resilient nature of the wildflowers that bloom in our landscapes. Knit in 4-ply yarn, these socks offer a soft, textured fit perfect for everyday wear and special moments. Inspired by the Gumnut Babies’ whimsical adventures and the gentle flowers of the bush, the Bush Blossom socks celebrate nature’s understated charm and the cozy warmth of homegrown comfort.
