Deep Forest Socks is the August pattern of the Nordic Knitting Society Sock Club. Please head over to their website to purchase! The pattern will be available in my Ravelry store when I retain the rights, which will be 1st of November 2025.

When heading deep into the forest, warm and cozy socks in your boots is essential. The Deep Forest Socks are knitted from the top down and feature a beautiful cable pattern on the front, reminiscent of tree trunks intertwining with one another. The cable design helps the sock stay snug on the foot, and the classic heel flap and gusset construction contributes to an excellent fit. The yarn used is of medium thickness, making the socks suitable for almost all types of footwear. The pattern comes in five sizes to fit many. Happy knitting!
