All sock patterns are 15% off throughout October 2023 for Socktober! No code needed!

Please note that if you purchase all four patterns (Carabosse shawl, The Blue Haired Fairy Shawl, Fée Marraine, and the Oberon socks) in this collection you can do so for a reduced price. This should happen automatically and does include previous purchases. This price may not always be cheaper than other discounts and sales, but will always be on offer.

The first in the Fairies in Literature collection, the Oberon socks are inspired by the imagery of Oberon with stag horns and by his personality: powerful but also tricky and manipulative. The yarn from Eternity Ranch Knits is inspired by the forest. They feature a simple horn cable down the front of the sock, and lots of smooth stocking stitch to let your yarn shine.

NB. If you knit to a looser gauge and are using the recommended yarn for the largest size then you may need more than one skein.
