I’ve found excellent merino wool socks in Costco.

I must echo ansible90's recommendation of merino wool for sweaters and socks. There's nothing else like it, and it's not at all thick or bulky. Do an internet search for 100% merino; it'll yield some nice finds. It's machine washable, too (hang on a drying rack to dry.)
