While the sun beats down and we forget the chill of winter yet to come, knitting large objects is much less appealing. A sock does not crowd your lap as you knit, it is easy to take along as entertainment on picnics and days at the beach, and subsequently makes perfect summer knitting.

The Summer Sock club takes place over three months, each month you receive a club-exclusive Sock yarn colourway, a "serving-suggestion" pattern and some secret goodies designed to enhance your knitting life. The yarn colourways are designed with summer in mind; lighter, breezy and cheerful. The patterns will probably appeal to women more than men.
