Hello, sock‑curious beauties!
This year, Stephen West is spoiling our toes with one brand‑new sock pattern every month throughout 2025, bundled as an e‑book priced at €45.60. Patterns drop as monthly PDF updates now, and - clever move- they’ll be sold individually in 2026. So if you want the full set (and the momentum), now’s the time.
Westknits has been revealing designs as the months roll on think Rib Vault Socks, Botanic Socks, Painting Parallelograms Socks, Spring Cleaning Socks, Sharktooth Socks, and more. If you like your socks bold, architectural and a tad cheeky, you’re home.
PSA: Secure those DPNs before they jailbreak your project bag
If you’re knitting your socks on Double Pointed Needles, you already know: stitches slip, a needle vanishes, your handbag lining gets perforated… chaos. A DPN holder snaps (or slides) over your live stitches, keeps your set together, and turns travel‑knitting from risky to delightful.
Why you’ll love it:
- No more lost needles between the sofa cushions.
- No “porcupine snagging” when you pull your project out of the bag.
- Doubles as a mini protector for short circulars or interchangeable tips.
👉 [Pop a DPN Holder into your basket] (perfect partner to the Year of Socks e‑book).
