Description:

Our Premium Silk Sock yarn is a luxurious blend of 60% superwash Merino (21 micron), 20% recycled nylon, and 20% mulberry silk, spun to a 4/17nm count. The Merino fibres are specially treated to be machine washable, so the yarn won’t felt when dyed or washed, giving you a reliable and versatile base.

The silk adds softness and subtle lustre, while the recycled nylon provides extra strength and durability. The knitted fibre has natural elasticity and excellent stitch definition, making it perfect for socks, scarves, shawls, and lightweight accessories that feel soft and silky against the skin.

Our mulberry silk is sourced from mindful, low-impact sericulture, so every skein is as ethical as it is luxurious. Both the Merino and silk accept acid dyes beautifully, making this yarn ideal for hand-painting, speckles, semi-solids, or layered gradients.

About our recycled nylon: Made from recycled materials like fabric scraps and old fishing nets, our recycled nylon offers the same strength and durability as regular nylon – just with a lower environmental impact. It’s hard-wearing, long-lasting, helps reduce waste, and conserves energy.
