A brand new sock yarn for us, this one is especially unique. It’s a blend of superwash merino for softness and elasticity, bamboo for breathability, silk for strength and shine, and nylon for even more added strength. For sock yarn, we always say, the more plies the better, and this yarn features three strands of 2-ply yarn twisted together to make an unusual 6-ply yarn.
