I promised my 16 Polar Sock class participants last night that I would post these links to simplify their searches for high quality fleece. We used the Green Pepper – 504 Polar Sock pattern and had a lot of fun! Thank you all for participating!

McCalls Pattern company carries them, so maybe you can get them at your chain fabric store. Otherwise, I think the Rain Shed linked above would ship to Canada. -goodworks1

I asked my friend Connie Bontje (Ontario) and she suggested this company in Calgary. http://www.peakfabrics.com/pattern/peak The pattern looks very similar.
Also jalie patterns (Montreal, I think) has a sock pattern that comes in a pdf format for downloading.. https://jalie.com/2448-thermal-socks-428

Note, the jalie pattern suggests fleece that stretches both ways rather than the standard polartec.
And Connie’s blog is http://couturesmith.com/

You might try emailing the Green Pepper folks at Info@TheGreenPepper.com to see if they have Canadian retailers.

This place also has the pattern. http://www.rockywoods.com/ however the total cost of the pattern and shipping to Canada was about $20.00 according to another friend.
