100g. 75% Superwash, 25% Nylon. 4Ply.
This yarn moves smoothly through the fingers on 3.25mm needles, producing a firm, even fabric that resists pilling through repeated wear and washing. The nylon content gives the finished fabric genuine resilience — heels and toes hold their shape wash after wash rather than thinning out over time. It knits up without splitting, which makes it a reliable choice for working on double-pointed needles or magic loop.
Socks are the obvious home for this yarn — ankle socks, knee-highs, and sturdy hiking socks all benefit from the nylon reinforcement. It also works well for baby booties and children’s mittens where durability matters as much as softness. Slippers with a knitted sole are another practical use, given how well the fabric withstands friction.
The palette runs from clean neutrals and heathered tones to bolder solids, with enough variety to suit both classic and contemporary colourwork patterns.
