Class is in session... welcome to Sock School!
September is here, the air feels fresher, and it’s time to sharpen your crochet hooks and settle in for some cosy learning. This month, we’re heading into the hallowed halls of Sock School - a dark academia–inspired crochet project where beginners can finally master the art of handmade socks!
Think: richly coloured yarns, quiet afternoons with a cup of tea, the gentle rhythm of stitches… and that feeling of satisfaction when you slip on your very first pair of crochet socks.
The Sock School Box
Why Sock School is perfect for beginners
Crochet socks can feel intimidating — but not here. We’re keeping the stitches simple so you can focus on the important skills: shaping the sock, working the heel, and creating a fit you’ll love.
The forgiving fit of this pattern means there’s no need to panic about perfection — and using DK-weight yarn makes the project quicker, cosier, and easier to handle. By the end, you’ll have a pair of socks you can actually wear (and show off), along with the knowledge to make many more.

What’s in the September box?
Your Sock School kit contains everything you need to make your own cosy pair of DK-weight crochet socks:

-
Pattern graded in three sizes: Small, Medium, and Large
-
Beginner-friendly instructions with step-by-step photos
-

-
Curate Crochet Box signature hook and all the little extras you’ll need to finish your socks
- A bookmark and book-themed notebook as a little extra

In Sock School, you’ll:
-
Understand simple sock construction from toe to cuff
-
Shape a heel without fear
-
Choose between striking colour block or stripe design
-
Work evenly and neatly in the round

Create a wearable, comfortable fit!
Is this project for me?
Absolutely. Whether you’ve never crocheted socks before or you’ve been putting it off for years, this box is designed to guide you through every step. Think of it as your personal crochet classroom - with plenty of tea breaks and no strict teachers.
No matter where you are on your crochet journey, you'll find everything you need to help you make up this month's box.
I'll walk you through each skill and technique in turn in the video, so that we make along together.
Am I tied into a subscription?
Nope! Curate Crochet Box is designed to be super flexible. All our projects are revealed each month before your renewal date, so you can skip a box if it's not your cup of tea, or if you are busy that month. Or you can cancel anytime if you need to - all from your own account.
How to join Curate Crochet Box
Sign-ups for the Sock School box are open now, but only until 8th September. Once the classroom doors close, there's no guarantee the kit will be available in future. If you are already one of our subscribers, you don't need to do anything! The box will be posted to your door with everything you need to make it.
Grab your hook, claim your seat, and let’s make this your season of socks!
Or, if you are looking for a present for the yarn-lover in your life (or yourself, we're not here to judge) you can purchase a 1, 3, 6 or 12 month gift subscription too...
