Teton Yarn Company Hand Dyed Glacier Sock Yarn, a durable but soft, 3 ply Superwash Merino/Yak/Nylon Sock Yarn with generous yardage with the right amount of twist to hold up to socks but soft enough to wear next to the skin for a variety of projects such as shawls, shawlettes, baby blankets, wraps, gloves and hats.

Glacier Sock blends 20% Yak fibers with 70% Superwash Merino and 10% Nylon. Glacier Sock is not a white or ecru yarn, as our other undyed yarns are. The dark Yak fiber affects the color of the raw fibers here, and lends depth to colors.
