Handspun Merino Wool Knee Socks

Keep your feet toasty year-round with these handmade socks by our master artisan partners that are made from virgin merino wool that they clean, card and spin by hand on a traditional drop spindle. Naturally breathable in both cold and warm weather, water-repellent, durable, stretchy, and resistant to stains, odours and wrinkles, these textiles are perfect to wear inside winter boots or for relaxing at home. Our knee socks are available in a choice of ivory or warm dark grey wool.

Artisans
The talented makers of these pieces have been working with wool for generations. Their home workshop in Southern Mexico offers the family space to collaborate on wool pieces that are made on backstrap and standing loom, as well as knitting, crochet and woodwork. While their pieces are sublime, it is also time consuming, and requires an extraordinary amount of skill and patience.

Care
These pieces should be wiped clean with a dry cloth, or spot cleaned by hand where necessary with mild detergent and cold water.
