Product Details

I am a fan of a bright sock. They’re bold. -Matt Smith, English actor

Several years ago, I saw more tweed yarn available from Indie Dyers at shows around the US, but it wasn’t as common to find bright colored tweed. Until I saw some at Rhinebeck and bought several bright colors. Now years later, I have fallen down the DK Tweed rabbit hole and designed these socks as a collaboration with Dianne of Suburban Stitcher yarns and thought I should also include fingering weight socks as well. Named for Pears as this collection resembles the lovely colors of a variety of pears but also because everyone loves a little play on words, especially a former English teacher. Thus, the Pears of Socks Collection. But please, choose some bright colored tweed yarn and cast on!

Pattern notes: Written for both DK and Fingering weight yarns, this collection includes ‘top-down’ socks, cast on at the cuff, then worked in the round on double pointed or circular needles to the heel.
