Arbon Argyle Sock
£18.90 – £22.00
A traditional Argyle wool sock for men and women, knitted in the UK. Like the Frome Fairisle, the Arbon Argyle is knitted in a very soft Falklands Corriedale wool with 25% nylon for stretch and durability.
The traditional Argyle sock pattern is knitted in three different colour combinations of greys, cream, olive, khaki brown, sky blue and pink. The sky blue colourway has diamonds of cream and pink with dark grey overcheck (the lines through the diamonds). The Dark Grey colourway has diamonds of Khaki brown and Olive with a Sky blue overcheck. The Cream colourway has diamonds of light and mid grey with a madder red overcheck.
The socks come in three main sizes: small which is a shoe size 5-7, medium size which fits shoe sizes 8 to 10 and the large for shoe sizes 11-13. We also have an extra small in the sky blue colourway for shoe sizes 3-4.
The yarn was spun and dyed and the socks knitted for us in the UK.
Description
The Arbon Argyle Sock
We have started to develop our range of Argyle wool socks for men and women. Firstly, I started with small quantities in just three colourways as I learn how the different colours work together. I wanted to create a Bertie Wooster meets the 21st century look. Secondly, as we don’t currently have an everyday, knee-high sock, at present, I have each colourway knitted in an ankle length and a knee high version. And finally, I’ve introduced an extra small size in the Sky blue and Light Grey colourways for individuals like me who wear a size 3.5 shoe and find the 4-7 size, just a bit too large.
Like my Frome Fairisle, I have had the Arbon Argyle knitted in a very soft Falklands Corriedale wool with 25% nylon for stretch and durability.
I have my traditional Argyle sock pattern knitted in three different colour combinations of greys, cream, olive, khaki brown, sky blue and pink. The sky blue colourway has diamonds of cream and pink with dark grey overcheck (the lines through the diamonds). The Dark Grey colourway has diamonds of Khaki brown and Olive with a Sky blue overcheck. The Cream colourway has diamonds of light and mid grey with a madder red overcheck.

I have my yarn spun and dyed in the North of England from Falklands wool. The socks are then knitted in the UK Midlands for me.

Care Information
Our natural fibre, unisex socks are kinder to your feet than synthetic alternatives, but this means they need a gentle wash. We recommend our alpaca and wool socks are gently hand washed and rinsed in tepid water, squeezing gently rather than wringing. A vigorous machine wash (whatever the temperature) with too much detergent or long spin, may result in shrinkage.
Leave to dry naturally and do not put in a tumble dryer.
