Where will you take your favourite pair of socks?
Every pair of Genevieve Sweeney socks is lovingly crafted in a small, family-run mill in Derbyshire. Knitted in limited batches, with care and attention woven into every stitch.
Once they leave our studio and step into your world, they begin a new chapter: walking with you through life’s moments, both ordinary and extraordinary. From the hum of the city to the quiet of the countryside, both near and far. Our British-made knitwear is designed not just to be worn, but to be lived in, and nothing brings us more joy than hearing about the journeys our designs share with you. The adventures, milestones and memories they become part of.
Here’s a glimpse into some beautiful moments our GS socks took in 2025, with stories we are delighted to be part of.
Moments That Moved Us in 2025
This year, our Merino Wool Walking Socks scaled new heights, quite literally on an amazing eight day trek up Mount Kilimanjaro. Climbing 13,453 feet to the summit, our lovely Genevieve Sweeney customer wore our walking socks day and night on their trek for an amazing cause, to build a school for an orphanage in Tanzania for charity Simply Love International.


Our walking socks also travelled north, exploring the stillness of the Swedish Lakes, while our Serora Sparkly Stripe Socks were spotted living it up in Japan, such a perfect place for sparkles alongside traditional tea ceremonies and Karaoke.


Closer to home our Cotton Walking Socks walked the dramatic Cornish coastline and witnessed a magical proposal along the cliffs. And at Glastonbury, our Samar Merino Wool Marl Socks danced the night away, festival style, under the stars.


Each story is a reminder of why we do what we do: To create pieces that move through life with you, gathering meaning with every wear.
Where Will You Take Your GS Knitwear in 2026?
It’s not just our socks. All our knitwear is made to travel. Crafted with care and built to wander. From the city streets to open landscapes and everything in between. Every sweater, scarf and pair of socks begins its story with us, but it truly comes to life with you.
It will accompany you through life’s moments and from its first to its hundredth wear, our beautiful knitwear will integrate and shape itself to you and your life.
So, where will you take yours in 2026?
The City Break?
Perhaps our luxurious knitwear will find themselves dashing between sightseeing, gallery visits and dinner reservations during your weekend getaway. Consider our British-made dresses and skirts for a sophisticated and timeless elegance that will ensure you glide effortlessly ‘to and fro’ during your city sojourn.

The Country Escape?
Or, as dawn breaks over open land and the scent of pine and woodsmoke fills the air, maybe you will wrap yourself in British Made Women's Wool Sweaters whilst sipping on the first coffee of the day. Add your favourite beanie and cosiest oversized scarf and gloves to head out on mountain paths or forest trails. Not forgetting your most comfortable walking socks - the perfect companion for every countryside wander.

The Journey Abroad?
Every journey deserves the touch of comfort and familiarity that comes with our oversized blanket scarf. Perfect for cosiness on a long flight or exploring new places, it’s a piece that’s as versatile as it is beautiful. Wrap it close for warmth, drape it as an accessory, and let it accompany you across continents.

The Everyday Moments
Sometimes, the most special memories are found in the simplest moments. At home, your cosy wool socks might be the first thing you reach for in the morning before your toes even touch the floor. Or perhaps your favourite wool sweater to keep you warm on a chilly dog walk. Perhaps it’s the Oversized Scarve draped across a chair, ready to grab and wrap around you as the evening settles in.

From everyday rituals to extraordinary adventures, we love to see where your favourite Genevieve Sweeney knitwear takes you. Tag us in your photos and stories — we can’t wait to follow along on your journeys near and far.
