About This Yarn

Something a little different for a sock yarn, this has added Nylon for strength and alpaca for softness, and this also strengthens the yarn too. The yarn takes the dye well, and colours appear slightly more muted on this yarn due to the alpaca content. Speckles can be achieved with effort. The resulting fabric is soft with a gentle halo from the alpaca. We would recommend knitting this on 2.25mm needles for socks.
