October is here, and with it the leaves are turning and the crisp mornings have us leaning into all things cozy. While this month is typically about harvest celebrations and fall festivities, we think it can also be a time to indulge in the joy of cozy handknit socks to warm your toes and brighten your days. We just received a shipment of two fun new yarns from Laines du Nord, and we can't wait to see all the cozy socks (and slippers!) you create with them.

First, we have Eclectic Sock - a fun new take on a striping sock yarn that features a delicate mélange effect forming a harmonious hue on the socks. The playful, colored stripes add vitality and create visual contrast. Each ball of Eclectic Sock yarn allows you to make two identical socks, and its blend of wool and nylon offers that perfect mix of comfort and strength to make your handknit socks last longer.

 Eclectic Sock colors featured left to right: 003, 001, 005, 004, 002, 006.

There is nothing like homemade felted slippers, and the new Slippers yarn from Laines du Nord was designed specifically for knitting up your own cozy pair. Made of 100% mulesing-free wool, you can create a pair of identical, super warm (not to mention comfortable!) slippers from just a single ball of Slippers yarn.

Laines du Nord Slippers is a 200g ball of soft, single ply untreated wool which is ideal for successful felting. Every ball of Slippers yarn features a single color that transitions into multicolored stripes making each pair of slippers unique.

Note: Receive a complimentary Slippers Babucce pattern (shown above) with your purchase of one or more skeins of Laines du Nord Slippers yarn.
