Hot Socks
We’ve gone self-striping mad here at Suffolk Socks HQ! This month we said hello to 3 new ranges of Hot Socks and they rock. The most difficult decision of all was deciding what range and shade to choose. I couldn't knit fast enough and had severe “cast-on-itis” so I chose to knit up one from each range.
Hot Socks Rubin available in 100gm balls, 7 shades and it’s Bamboo, Superwash wool content it’s a joy to knit. Hot Socks Diamond comes in 50gm skeins 75% Merino, 25% polyamide mix. And for those of us who like to wear sock all year round but sometimes find the wool content just a little too warm we have Hot socks Palma, this 41% Cotton, 39% wool, 13% Polyamide and 7%polyester make this an ideal yarn choice. You’ll be wearing your Hot Socks with your crocs all summer.
Enjoy the cheerful stripy and sensational shades.

The heel is the Fish Lips kiss Heel, a paid for pattern also available on ravelry. My new School Socks Rock design thats just been published will look great knit in these yarns. theres 3 designs in the pattern Autumn, Spring and Summer Term inspired by my love of wearing a new pair of white lacy school socks on the first day of term.
