My studio is full of eco-friendly yarn and geeky humor, just like these table leg crochet tube socks made with 20% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. Plus I donate a rainforest tree to The Nature Conservancy with your purchase.

When the set of reclaimed chairs I yarn bombed (www.etsy.com/listing/99385216) were scooped up by an art gallery in San Francisco, my home studio was in need of more whimsy and nothing was safe! I wanted to do smaller-scale pieces for people who like little bursts of charm at home. I first crocheted five table sock prototypes to get to a perfect pattern – and yes, now silly table socks are everywhere! I’m working on ruffle socks, tennis socks, and more so stay tuned to the shop at http://knitsforlife.etsy.com. I do custom orders, so feel free to contact me with your ideas for the perfect table socks for your school, shop, home, or office.

Here are all the juicy details:

SIZE
Each crochet table sock is 9.5 inches (24 cm) long and stretches to fit any shape leg up to 6.5 (16.5 cm) inches around.

MATERIALS
These home decor yarn bombs are made with yarn containing 20% of a fiber called NatureSpun, which is made with recycled post-consumer plastic PET bottles, just like your soda two liters. The other 80% is high-quality machine-washable and -dryable acyrlic. Made in a studio with no smoking or pets.

GIFT WRAP
Beautiful gift wrap in tissue with ribbon and a note is complimentary. Want to include a message to your recipient? Just include it in your checkout message or contact me.

SHIPPING
A 4-pack of crochet table socks will ship to you on business day after payment via USPS First Class mail. If you live in the US, they will arrive in 3-5 days. If you live in another country, expect 10-15 business days or less. Yes, I can ship with another carrier or speed. Just contact me before you purchase the socks with the details.

RETURNS
Hassle-free return policy. No questions asked.
