July theme

The journey

Whether dreamed, imaginary, or real, travel inspires stitches that take us elsewhere. A faraway destination, a landscape that excites you, a culture that fascinates you, or even a simple vacation memory: each stitch can tell the story of an escapade, each color evoke a mood.

Boss inspiration

Beautiful patterns to inspire you in making your socks:

Star Athena

Lantern Socks

The Lantern Festival is celebrated on the last day of the Chinese New Year. Traditionally, thousands of colorful lanterns are hung or paraded during the full moon at the beginning of the new year.

Dona Knits

By the Seine River

Inspired by the ripples of the Seine, this delicate lace sock evokes strolls along the quays and the poetry of the City of Lights. A delicate getaway to knit stitch by stitch.

Jamie Lomax

Travel Doodle

Plane, suitcase, camera, boat... This design offers a collection of travel-inspired jacquard patterns. It's up to you to combine them to create a unique pair of socks that tells the story of your own adventure, whether real or imagined!

It’s up to you to make your socks travel… and those who look at them.
