A gift of wool socks warms you in many ways, and you can never have too many wool socks.

The wool socks given as gifts this Christmas are especially appreciated. Together, Finns have committed to avoiding electricity shortages and embarking on the Down a Degree energy-saving campaign, which makes woolly gifts more relevant than ever. Wool socks keep us warm even if the temperature in our homes has been lowered by one degree according to the recommendations.

There is still time to grab your knitting needles and make one of the favourite gifts of this Christmas. Impressive patterns, simple basic socks or fluffy slippers – everything goes and everyone works in their own style, to suit the recipient and according to their level of skill and time.

Knitting has been proven to be a relaxing activity, comparable to meditation. If you do not have the skills or time to make socks, you can also buy a comfortable pair of socks at a local Christmas market.
