Smooth Sock

4-ply Smooth Sock is your go-to fingering weight yarn for garments and accessories of all kinds. Made from 85% extrafine superwash merino and 15% nylon, 4-ply Smooth Sock is very soft with strength. It has a moderate twist that gives it a defined round bounce--ideal for cables and detail as well as an even, straight stockinette or garter stitch.

85% superwash merino / 15% nylon

A next-to-skin soft yarn with confidence! Ever so soft, but with feeling. Polwarth is a Merino/Lincoln cross that offers strong, lustrous wool with excellent stitch definition and a light crispness--think lightly-toasted marshmallow. Well-suited to all sorts of garments and accessories, especially those that call for some loft and texture, like this gorgeous A Break in Tide Cowl by Tif Neilan.
