Proper Sock is a yarn designed specifically for making everyday wearable socks. With 25% nylon it’s durable. And the 75% wool gives a beautifully soft feel. Hand knit socks have seen a huge revival recently. It’s a profound act of love to knit someone a pair. They won’t care if you use shorties, the magic loop, or good old-fashioned double pointed needles. As long as you knit them. So grab a good pattern and get going!
Red and Green are opposites on the colour wheel – so it seems a little “Ironic” that they should combine so beautifully, perhaps even “a little too ironic”, like the lyrics from Alanis Morissette’s famous song. If you don’t appreciate the irony and want a colour that will tone it down, try Rainforest or Olive. Or for some colourwork contrasts that would really pop out think about Guinea Fowl, or Chilli Pepper. Since our colours are hand dyed in small batches there is variation between batches, and even within a batch. We have a process and ingredients for each colour recipe, but can’t control how the colours “land” each time. If you’re looking for a sweater quantity please let us know and we will dye up a batch specially for you.
