Misty Superwash Sock is a beautifully balanced pale grey sock base, designed to create depth, nuance, and effortlessly sophisticated colourways.

Spun from 65% superwash merino, 10% grey superfine alpaca, and 25% nylon, this 4 ply / fingering weight yarn offers the perfect combination of softness, strength, and visual interest. The superwash merino ensures excellent dye uptake and easy care, while the nylon adds durability ideal for hard-wearing socks.

What truly sets Misty Superwash Sock apart is the addition of naturally grey alpaca. This subtle undertone creates a soft, light grey base that transforms dyed colours into rich, complex, heathered shades – adding instant depth and character without extra effort. Tonals become moodier, brights gain sophistication, and variegated colourways take on a gently blended, organic finish.

With 400m (437 yds) per 100g skein, Misty Superwash Sock is perfect for socks, yet versatile enough for shawls, garments, and accessories.

Misty Superwash Sock base is an ideal for dyers looking to offer something a little different – an easy-to-dye yarn that delivers beautifully heathered, high-end results straight from the pot.
