This 2 ply sock yarn features fibre from Dublin. This yarn will produce cozy hand-crafted socks in a versatile neutral. If you prefer, the soft white is a perfect backdrop for dyeing. Of course, sock yarn isn't just for socks. The added nylon gives the yarn a nice drape and durability for other projects as well.
