Silver Sock Mini Skeins offer a reliable blend of softness, strength, and visual interest for standout dye projects. The perfect complement to our Silver Superwash Sock 100g skeins, the yarn is spun from 70% Superwash Merino (21 microns), the yarn takes dye evenly and deeply while maintaining a soft, next-to-skin feel.

Silver Sock Mini Skeins also contain 23% nylon to provide resilience and stretch, making them a dependable choice for socks and high-wear items. A subtle 7% Silver Lurex thread is spun consistently through the yarn, adding a delicate shimmer that holds up through the dyeing process without overpowering your colours. The Lurex resists dye, allowing for clear contrast and a touch of sparkle that adds value without complicating the dye process.

This base is a go-to for dyers seeking a touch of luxury with solid performance—perfect for limited edition runs, seasonal colorways, or building a signature sparkle line.

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.
