Fatcatsplat Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Seeking the knowledge of the PW hive brain. My calves are getting blooming enormous as a result of the medication i am taking and the fact that i can't say no to a pie. While i can get ordinary run of the mill wide top socks for most occassions, can anyone recommend a brand or stockist for wide fit or non elaticated thick winter socks?

Yellow Bear Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 Find someone who will hand knit to size as required, won't be cheap but there are fairly large numbers of "craft knitters" out there who would be interested. You would also have an almost infinite choice of colour, style, yarn, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centrepin Posted November 19, 2019 Report Share Posted November 19, 2019 (edited) B & M, £7.00 for 2 pairs. Very soft, very warm, and ultra stretchy. I take the dogs out at 0630 every morning and bought these as wellie socks. No idea how long they'll last but at that price who cares.
