The Corn Moon is almost here — rising on Monday, August 11, this full moon invites us to slow down, ground ourselves, and gather the richness of what we’ve been growing (literally and figuratively). Traditionally named for the time of corn harvest, this moon symbolizes abundance, nourishment, and preparation for change. It’s a beautiful moment to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the rhythms of nature. The yarn and pattern for the socks were created for Yarn Twisters Sock Club August 2025.
