STAY OUT OF THE...SOCK!

Welp, we had another happy accident! This time we made some VERY sturdy sock yarn, and y’all, it’s kind of an amazing yarn!
What really happened to this yarn though? We had the ply settings on the wrong speed and we plied it too tight! Things happen in a mill sometimes! But zero tears fell over this one, because the end result is a heavy sock weight yarn that is gonna stand up to the friction and wear that socks get.
Of course, you can knit anything you want with this OOAK yarn, but we are still pretty obsessed with Andrea Mowry’s Totally Tessellated Socks… so that’s our recommendation! Pair it with Oh Dang! and Spinsters Daughter and you’re good to go!
DYED IN THE WOOL • heavy sock weight • 100% superwashed American wool • 200 yards per skein • hand wash cold, lay flat to dry • MADE IN THE USA FROM SHEEP TO SKEIN
You will receive a skein from this colorway, but not the exact skein pictured. • Due to our “dyed in the wool” process, each skein we produce is unique, even within a dyelot. • If you have specific color preferences, please leave a note in the box at checkout. • We recommend buying your entire yardage requirement for your project in the same transaction, so that we can hand select skeins that match.
For high contrast colorwork, we recommend steam blocking to avoid color transfer. • Some dyes are notoriously difficult to set, and may exhaust some color even after our final wash. • Please keep this in mind if you are combining any hand dyed yarn with a light color in the same project. • If you plan to combine a hand dyed yarn, especially a very saturated colorway, with a lighter yarn, we suggest you test your darker skeins for possible color transfer by soaking them first. • To wash your knitwear, a quick cold water dip with a no-rinse wool wash is recommended.
