4ply Deluxe Sock 85% Superwash Extrafine (19.5 micron) Merino 15% nylon 1 kg CONE

4ply "Deluxe" Sock Weight

85% Superwash Merino 15% Nylon Yarn

The extrafine merino wool makes this yarn luxuriously soft and bouncy for next to skin comfort. A little nylon is added for extra durabilty.

The main factor determining the quality of merino wool is its softness which depends upon the fineness of the fibres. We use extrafine merino (19.5 microns) which is some of the finest commercially available for hand dyers.

One of our best sellers. This yarn is so versatile and can be used for any next to skin project (scarves, jumpers etc) as well as items where a little more durability is required such as socks and gloves.
