Discover the transformative power of a simple stitch through this beautifully illustrated celebration of sock mending.

SOCKS documents an inspiring community project where Surrey Square Primary School in Southwark learned the art of darning, transforming 488 warehouse-waste socks into vibrant, colourful treasures. Follow the creative journey from nursery through year 6, showcasing how children's dexterity and imagination flourish through hands-on craft. The book also features artist and educator Celia Pym's personal mending practice for loved ones. A testament to the value of practical skills in childhood development, this work builds on Pym's celebrated previous book, On Mending: Stories of damage and repair.

Quality, comfort and support.
Size: Medium, Color: Deep Sea/Breaker Blue/Electro Pink
These socks are the bomb! If you are athletic or on your feet for extended periods these great looking, well made socks are constructed to offer just the right amount of compression and support. The toe is soft and thick. I will order these again and again. Hopefully Amazon will add even more color choices on the future.

Best socks
Size: Medium, Color: Pink Elixir Assorted
Everyone got socks in their stockings this year. But no one was complaining. They weren't thin like some socks. But not super thick either. Just right. I even bought a pair for myself. No regrets. Will definitely buy again.
