We’ve shown you knitting patterns for TARDIS socks in the past, but these versions from Ellen Botilda might have a slightly better design.
The pattern to knit a pair for yourself is available for free (Google Docs), though we wish the BBC would just sell something similar ready-made for the rest of us.
What geek guy could resist a geek girl wearing knee-high socks explaining what kind of geek she is? It’s also available in men’s sizes, which seems far from sexy. Still, team pride and all that you know?

These shark bite socks are a bloody upgrade to the original versions. Clearly, they hunger for the ankles of scantily clad, tattooed women.

Most of the time, I don’t mind that I’m not crafty, but these patterns over at the Sanguine Gryphon are making me wish I was a knitter in the worst way.
Whether you fancy Beowulf socks, a Daisy Buchanan hat, Buttercup’s cape from The Princess Bride or a really smart looking pair of mitts ala Lolly Willowes, they’ve got patterns. Check out more after the break.

If you are handy with needles and thread, you can use the pattern on whittylitteknitter to craft your own pair of TARDIS socks for the winter.
Unfortunately the socks aren’t going to be bigger on the inside than they are on the outside, so you won’t be able to fit your whole body in there when you really want to get cozy. For that you will need the TARDIS dress.

It makes perfect sense—a foot cozy that harnesses the heat from your Apple power adapter to keep toes warm. Of course, these adapters do have a history of overheating, as the designer, Rachel Burns, notes:
Knee high socks are sexy, but I would keep any lewd comments to yourself lest you get a roundhouse kick to the head in full 3D. That having been said, these socks would be the perfect companion to the 3D glasses dress.

These Tabi socks offer a Hokusai print and kanji that apparently reads either “Japan is #1″ or “Best of Japan”. By the looks of things this could be a creative way to get more surfers to vacation in The Land of the Rising Sun.
