Frome Fairisle Sock
£18.00
The Frome Fairisle sock is one of our newer sock designs. It’s knitted in a very soft Falklands Corriedale wool with 30% polyamide for stretch and durability. This is a slightly longer dress sock with a plain knitted heel and toe and a plain ribbed cuff. The socks have been knitted for us in Scotland.
The traditional fairisle motifs are knitted in eight different colour combinations of greys, creams, madder, olive, khaki brown and blues. The Madder, Kent Blue, Olive and Gold colourways all have dark grey heel, cuff and toe. The Khaki, Blues and Blue Madder colourways have a mid grey heel, cuff and toe. Our new cream colourway uses colours of light blue, brown and charcoal on a cream base.
The sizing is slightly different to our other socks. The small which is a shoe size 4-7 has a leg length of 23cm or 9″. The medium size fits shoe sizes 7.5-9.5 and the large, shoe sizes 10-12. Both these sizes have a leg length of 31cm or 12″.
Our Sock of the Month offer is two or more pairs for £15.50 per pair.

Frome Fairisle Sock
My Frome fairisle sock is knitted in a very soft Falklands Corriedale wool with 30% polyamide for stretch and durability. It is a slightly longer dress sock with a plain knitted heel and toe and a plain ribbed cuff. They are now knitted for me in Scotland.
I have had the traditional fairisle motifs knitted in seven different colour combinations of greys, creams, madder, olive, khaki brown and blues. The Madder, Kent Blue, Olive and Gold colourways all have dark grey heel, cuff and toe. The Khaki, Blues and Blue Madder colourways have a mid grey heel, cuff and toe.
The sizing is slightly different to our other socks. The small which is a shoe size 4-7 has a leg length of 23cm or 9″. The medium size fits shoe sizes 7.5-9.5 and the large, shoe sizes 10-12. Both these sizes have a leg length of 31cm or 12″.
The latest batches of small Cream, Kent Blue and Gold colourways have been knitted by my new sock knitter in the Scottish Highlands. Although they have been knitted with the same yarn, you might initially notice a slightly different feel to them.
