Just over a year ago, I posted saying Kemps had sock wool but no patterns and as I was about to be a new sock knitted in 4 dpns, I didn't want a book of sock patterns. Took the advice of 'posters' and got sock patterns from Ravelry and Patons which I added to 'My Hive'. Have to say the pattern for Kroy socks was the easiest to understand, it's not easy when you have 4 needles on the go! I have now knitted two pairs and am on the third and chuffed to beans as they even match!! Again though, Kemps still have the yarns but no needles. Are they thinking of supplying them. Its a bit of a nuisance ordering the wool from them and having to go elsewhere for the needles. It all adds up in the p and p.

Why don't you contact Kemps directly? There's a link from site information that lets you e-mail direct or there is a phone number. It does say at the top of the home page that they'll get things for you if you can't see it. I know people who have phoned them and found them to be very helpful.

We did have the regia sock needles on a while ago but they were a clearance, i will definitely look into ordering 4 needles in the future, as soon as they come in we will put them onto the site

Great news - thanks a lot. Can you let me know what length your needles are? Looking forward to you getting more sock yarn too!
