Description:

Superwash Sock Mini Skeins are 20g mini versions of our best selling Superwash Merino Sock yarn – they’re perfect for colourwork and gradient packs! Our Superwash Sock Mini Skeins yarn has a standard construction of 4/16nm with 400m (437 yds) per 100g. Made with 75% Superwashed Merino wool and 25% Recycled Nylon, the merino fibres have been specially treated before being spun to enable it to be machine washable, therefore will not ‘felt’ when dyed or washed. The merino is combined with a smaller percentage of recycled nylon giving the knitted fabric extra durability and strength making it harder wearing. The merino gives natural elasticity and we deliberately use 21 micron merino fibres which are not itchy or scratchy on the skin. Superwash Sock Mini Skeins are perfect for socks but can equally can be knitted into scarves, shawls or even baby garments which will feel soft next to the skin due to the fine micron merino used.

​Both merino wool and recycled nylon accept acid dyes so the yarn is perfect for dyeing and readily takes up the dye.
