The Surprise Sock Along (SSAL) is a knit along (KAL) where we all knit a stunning new Westknits sock pattern throughout the summer. The special twist for the SSAL is that you won't know what the socks will look like until you cast off at the end!
This year's SSAL Chameleonic Socks is all about self-striping yarn combined with a striking solid. Choose between our custom colours; Butterfly Kisses and Hello Grellow. We also have our favourite classic Zauberball colours in thoughtfully created kits especially for this year's socks!
Join us on wild transformative sock journey!
THE CHAMELONIC REVEAL
After 4 weeks of "surprising" construction techniques and self-striping fun, the finished sock is here!
If the finished design has caught your eye, you're in luck! We still have a few of our exclusive SSAL 2026 kits available. Choose your favourite solid colour with a custom or classic Zauberball and see just how "Chameleonic" this pattern can be. Be sure to grab your goodies, too. They're now available individually and as a set.
