I’m a few days late for Socktober but I’m always happy to have a new pair of socks for the collection ✨ This pair reminds me of gelato, it’s Madrid in the Super Soxx range which has such a great stripe!

Woolarium is closed on the public holiday tomorrow.

I’ve managed to get some craft done this summer which has been a delight - quite a lot of crochet, some sock knitting and some animal making with a little horse for my Kinder starter. Keep your eyes peeled in the next week or so for animal number two - it’s going to be cute (hopefully!) 🦏 What have you been working on this summer? ✨🧶
