When choosing socks, the Original Wool Socks are the warmest, the White Wool Mohair Socks are the softest, and the Hard Workin' Wool/Nylon Socks are the most durable.
Our sock sizes correspond to men's shoe sizes or are slightly smaller. If you like your socks loose, you may want to pick the next size up. Most men tend to fit into sizes 10-12 or 13-15. Most women tend to fit into sizes 4-6 or 7-9. If your foot size is right on the upper border of a size range, we would recommend getting the next size up. This makes them a bit more forgiving when it comes to washing.
To keep your Custom Woolen Mills socks in tip-top condition, machine wash them gently and hang to dry to prevent shrinkage.
Proper fitting shoes have a huge impact on how your socks will wear. If you find you get holes in your socks quickly, you may want to assess how your shoes fit. In the meantime, we have a handy tutorial on how to darn socks.

Great for needle-felting. Felts up quickly, nice surface finish that is not too "hairy". Rich colours. Some vegetable matter, but not excessive.
Samantha –
Very nice for needle felting!
Margaret W--Nova Scotia –
I'm thrilled with the quality--perfect for dry felting dryer balls! Delivery was timely and packaging convenient--love the volume explosion when removed from the one-pound bag. Will definitely order again!
Carol –
I knit wool liners for skido boots works for me.....
Jolene –

Jay –
I'd been getting wool from the states for needle felting and with shipping and duty it was unaffordable. So glad to find a Canadian source at a good price. The core wool had a lot of vegetable matter in it, maybe just that particular batch of sheep were rolling in pine needles, but since it was core wool it didn't matter too much. The coloured wool is clean and lovely and felts well. I will be ordering again.

I am very happy to have found this source for wool for felting. Prices elsewhere are discouragingly high. The first order arrived promptly and the wool felts well as far as i am my husband are able to determine as we are beginner's and have little to compare it too. A hearty thank you! to everyone at Custom Woolen Mills!
