Starting in 1994, Ted and his wife Åse Öjbro, the artist and designer, combined the rich traditions of Scandinavian knitting and folk art to create patterns that tell a fascinating story about the rustic charms of Nordic life and history. Beyond their attractive looks, the Öjbro’s mittens and socks are some of the softest and warmest you will find in a beautiful Merino wool.

I found a new love for my frozen feet.
I love these Öjbro Swedish knee socks. They arrived two days earlier than expected so I get to wear them all weekend. I have Raynauds Syndrome so my fingers and toes always freeze and turn white unless I have them over-bundled. Well, I've just been wearing these attractive, very well made - just for me - socks for the last 5 hours and my feet are nice and toasty. I love this pattern and chose it to match the mittens my son bought me a few weeks ago by this same company. Those kept my fingers warm - finally! - so I figured these will have to work also.I've uploaded some photos to give an idea of their awesome beauty and craftsmanship. these socks are very thick and firm yet will stretch easy enough to slip over my feet so easy I have no issues with my Osteoarthritic fingers. Once up to my knees they stay in place no matter how much I walk around or what I'm doing. They are not 'tight' either! This is very important. I can't tolerate constrictive anything.In the 6th photo, I've inverted the gloves and the socks so you can see the inside of both. The gloves are well lined because they'll be out in the cold weather. (and they're so baby bunny soft) The last photo I just folded the top over a little on one because sometimes we just want that look also.Of all the huge fluffy winter booties and foot warmers I've bought, not one compares to the comfort and warmth of these priceless gems. I have no choice but to purchase at least one more pair for when I'm forced to wash these. The separation won't be so devasting.If you have cold feet, suffer from Raynaud's, work outside, or do sporting, I highly recommend you do yourself a favor - your feet a favor - and spoil them with a pair or more of Öjbro Swedish Thick Winter knee Socks.

Unique, cute, and wool. Yay. Exc quality.
I love wool socks as they are warm in winter and, IMO, comfortable in the summer, at least where I live. I bought them to wear with boots, but alas, they are so wonderfully thick, I can't get my foot down into my size narrow cowboy boots or tall boots while wearing the socks. That said, I imagine a zippered boot, or a looser boot, may have had a different outcome. I wash them in cold water inside out in the delicate cycle & air dry. Even using spot remover for floor dirt, they still look brand new.
