This is a really special one. If you’ve been her This is a really special one. If you’ve been here since the very beginning, you might remember this pattern. It was my first ever sock pattern, released back in the spring of 2018 when I was still practicing law.

The Santa Rosa Socks have long needed an update, but for some reason, I dragged my feet on it. They are finally ready, though, and the updated pattern will be released on Halloween.

They now have five sizes, a new sample, fresh pictures, clearer instructions, and most importantly, thorough tech editing from  @techeditor.bluecrabknits.
I’ve been knitting socks since 2008 and designin I’ve been knitting socks since 2008 and designing them since 2018. It’s safe to say I’ve knit a lot of socks since then.

Come join me for an online workshop as part of the Knit Happy Summit, where I’ll walk you through all the factors to consider before you buy sock yarn for your next project.

The Knit Happy Summit is an entirely online summit featuring me and 20+ other super knowledgeable designers and teachers sharing their best tips and tricks to make your knitting experience better. It runs from November 6-9, 2025. There’s a free option with some limitations and an expanded pass that gets you tons of great bonuses (including four sock patterns from yours truly).

Socktober is my favorite time of year. I like to c Socktober is my favorite time of year. I like to celebrate with sock sales and lots of content about socks, but I also use it as a reminder to air out all my socks and freshen them up for winter use. 

They spend the warmer months in a basket, so giving them some regular movement and fresh air helps keep any pests away. Add in some cedar sachets, and we’re in good shape.
Making content is one thing, but making content ab Making content is one thing, but making content about making content? Ah, now that’s art.

Anyway, I’ll be here folding all these handknit socks for the foreseeable future.
