“Ragged Beach is one of three beaches in the seaside town of Witless Bay on the Southern Shore of Newfoundland’s Avalon Peninsula. The beach is full of ragged, jagged and very bumpy rocks, not at all what you would expect to find on a beach. The surf is wild and pounding. One would think that millennia of wave action alone would have pounded those rocks to sand. Makes one wonder!

The bumpy, textured stitch pattern is our interpretation of Ragged Beach in fine wool socks”
