This tough heavy sock weight yarn reminds us of a Tough Ram tramping through the slopes of Rocky Mountain National Park on a search of brightly colored gems. This tight twisted sock yarn knits up a striking detail in definition perfect for cables or other defining stitches. Despite its strength, it is lusciously soft and has wonderful drape when knit on larger needles.
