Austrian Style Wood Sock Forms
Austrian Wood Forms for Drying Dachstein Woolwear
Need help drying your wool socks?
Our Austrian Style Wood Sock Forms are perfect for air drying your Dachstein Woolwear socks!
A wood sock form will keep the shape and thickness of your socks and extend their life. By using 7-part warp-resistant pressed unfinished plywood, the sock form will hold the sock firmly in its natural shape while allowing it to air out and dry quickly. Your wool socks will not slip when hung and will retain their natural boiled wool felting as a result.

Wood Form Details
These are made from the same pressed wood as the sock forms used to form Dachstein Woolwear socks when they are originally dried after boiling in a thermal heat cellar.
