Announced live on Facebook, the draw is completely random, meaning everyone has an equal chance of winning. So, even if you're a beginner, don't miss out on this opportunity to participate.
To round off this year of challenges in style, we invite you to think outside the box. It's time to explore eye-catching textures and techniques that challenge your habits. Textured stitches, bold reliefs, original constructions, or blends of materials: anything goes, as long as the result intrigues, surprises, or makes you smile. Let your curiosity run wild and end this adventure on an innovative and inspired note!
Beautiful patterns to inspire you in making your socks:
These socks feature an unusual modular construction: the upper is knitted flat before the rest of the foot is shaped. Whether it's herringbone, wave, eyelet, garter stitch, or brioche stitch, each section adds its own texture and rhythm to this design, which is as stunning as it is fun to make.
These socks have everything to surprise you: their shape seems improbable until you wear them... and yet, they fit perfectly! Once in place, they hug the foot perfectly and stay in place, even after several hours. A model full of character, which proves that originality is not incompatible with comfort.
A fascinating visual interplay is created between the garter stitch and the two-tone brioche pattern, which elegantly winds across the top of the foot. This contrast of textures transforms a duo of colors into a design that is both refined and bold. These socks are proof that a good pattern can make all the difference!
Your needles are having fun surprising you, one stitch at a time.
Of course, for making socks, stocking wool is ideal. Our store has something for every taste and, of course, every theme.
Here are some product suggestions we would use to best fit this theme:
You have until August 31st to submit your design. After this date, the jury will review the socks, and the winners will be announced during one of our Facebook Live broadcasts the first week of the following month.
