The Crawl Socks debuted as the exclusive pattern for the Bombed Yarns November 2025 Monthly Sock Club and will be available for purchase starting 14 December 2025.

The Crawl Socks are designed for knitters who love subtle texture and playful details, and are inspired by the November 2025 release of Stranger Things Season 5.

Featuring a twisting stitch motif along the front of the leg and foot and a pop of contrasting colour at the cuff, these socks are both cozy and eye-catching, perfect for fans of the series and anyone who enjoys a fun, wearable sock pattern. The design is suitable for both intermediate and confident adventurous beginners.

The pattern includes full written instructions, plus a chart for the twisted stitch motif.
