A passion for knitting and beautiful quality wool has led me to create a range of warm, durable woollen socks as well as gorgeous knit wares.
Welcome to Candlebark Country Socks. A passion for knitting, together with my discovery of the distinct and beautiful qualities of the wool derived from the cross-breeding of Corriedale/Romney sheep, led me to create a range of warm, durable woollen socks. Our farmlet, east of Bendigo in Central Victoria, Australia, is the home of Candlebark Country Socks. The socks are hand-knitted from the wool of crossbred Corriedale/Romney sheep. This particular wool blend, evolved over several seasons, creates a superbly warm and soft yet durable fibre - perfect for socks! Our small flock of sheep is shorn in late September each year. The fleece is then washed, scoured and carded, after which it is commercially spun. My primary focus is on retaining the natural characteristics of the wool. Each pair of socks takes up to twenty hours to hand knit, employing a technique using four needles to create a seamless and wonderfully snug-fitting sock. I began by knitting the socks myself, but increasing interest in the quality of these unique woollen socks, led me to engage the skills of several experienced knitters across country Victoria. Their knowledge, craftsmanship and decades of expertise, contribute to the individuality of each pair of Candlebark Country socks.
