Description:

Superwash Sock Sparkle Mini Skeins are a 20g mini version of our well-loved superwash sock sparkle 4 Ply and are perfect for colourwork and gradient packs!

Superwash Sock Sparkle Mini Skeins  are made with 78% superwashed merino wool, 20% recycled nylon and 2% stellina. The merino fibres have been specially treated before being spun so the yarn can be safely machine washed. A touch of recycled nylon provides extra durability and strength to knitted garments. The merino gives natural elasticity and we deliberately use 21 micron merino fibres which are not itchy or scratchy on the skin.

Superwash Sock Sparkle Mini Skeins are perfect for socks as well as scarves, shawls and even baby garments which will feel soft next to the skin due to the fine micron merino used.

​Both merino wool and recycled nylon accept acid dyes so the yarn is perfect for dyeing and readily takes up the dye.
