Description
Fine Sock is a gorgeous superwash merino and nylon yarn base hand-painted and hand dyed. The merino quality is soft and fine, and with 25% Nylon, this makes for a fine, durable yarn for socks, shawls, light adult sweaters, and children’s wear. Hand dyed in Ireland.
From Life in the Long Grass: We dye using professional wash fast and light fast dyes which have minimum impact on the environment as we exhaust each dye pot so all the color is absorbed onto our yarn and the water is clear and safe to use again for our next batch. This is achieved by meticulous calculations and recipes that we have created to be as exact, efficient, and environmentally friendly as we can.
