High Twist for Socks- switch down to small needle size to achieve tight gauge for knitting no nylon socks!

This yarn has been spun up especially for WMFC and it’s super special. It is a nylon free, non- superwash UK sourced and spun yarn suitable for socks. It has a higher than usual twist, making it durable yet comfortable on the toes. It would also be suitable for shawls or perhaps even a lightweight sweater! It is a 3-ply construction (three strands twisted together make up the thread), and is therefore more rounded than the Natural Sock.

Naturally dyed in Nothern Ireland.
