Hedgehog Fibers - Sock Yarn
A luxurious blend of 90% merino and 10% nylon, this superwash yarn is both smooth and soft, offering excellent stitch definition. Hand-dyed in small batches in Cork, Ireland, each skein boasts vibrant, shifting colours that transition beautifully from one hue to the next, creating a captivating variegated effect that shines in both simple stockinette and intricate stitch patterns.
Custom spun exclusively for Hedgehog Fibres, this yarn is randomly dyed to minimise pooling and striping. Mulesing-free and carefully crafted, every skein is a work of art.
Please note: due to the unique hand-dyeing process, colours may vary slightly from skein to skein, even within the same dyelot. We recommend purchasing enough for your project as future dyelots may differ. While we take great care in photographing the yarns, colours may also appear differently from monitor to monitor.
Ideal for socks, shawls, and lightweight accessories – this is yarn that loves to be worn and cherished, project after project.
