Collection: Sock yarns

Lovely woolen socks are many knitters' first contact with knitting! High-quality sock yarns are designed to withstand wear and feel comfortable on the feet. Sock yarns are usually wool blends, in which, for example, sheep, alpaca or yak wool has been reinforced with polyamide, i.e. nylon. Nylon improves the flexibility of the socks and makes the yarn wear-resistant and prevents the socks from stretching.

Sock yarns are typically easy to care for. Superwash-treated sock yarns are resistant to machine washing, while hand-dyed sock yarns retain their color best by hand washing.
