  • York, England: One naalbound sock was found. It came to just below the ankle and possibly had a slit from the top part way down along the top of the foot. [WALTON 1989]:p.341-345
  • Skjoldehamn, Norway: 3 pieces of socks were found, 2 ankle parts and 1 toe part. The socks were made from woven grey and brown wool. The ankle parts were rectangles folded in half and sewn up under the heel. The toe part was sewn up along the top of the foot and attached to the ankle part along the bottom and up the side of the foot. This left an open gap at the front of the leg just above the ankle. [LOVLID 2009]:p.123-128
