The perfect sock yarn for your hand knitting project. These lovely yarns are 75% superfine alpaca 25% nylon and designed to give you super soft handing socks but with the strength required to give long lasting wear when worn with shoes.

Presented in a 100g skein as a 3/12Nm 4-Ply yarn and 400m length per skein.

We have chosen a variety of solid shades and two locally produced hand dyed mixed shades that will blend well with the solid colours to suit  a large selection of designs.

  1. Chas Brooke

    Dear Carol, thanks for this. I don’t recognise the pattern you name but your comment is linked to our 75%superfine alpaca/25%nylon 4ply sock yarns. As with all natural fibres they are best hand washed with a gentle wool soap. Squeeze gently and dry flat on a towel. Blocking might also be necessary. Hope that helps.
