Want your handmade socks to stand the test of time? A small blend of nylon or even mohair can work wonders. These fibres add strength and wear-resistance, making your socks more durable without sacrificing softness. This combination ensures that your socks will keep their shape and last for many wears and washes.
Sock yarn usually falls into the fingering weight or 4-ply category, which is finer than standard yarns but thicker than lace yarn. This weight allows for intricate patterns while keeping your socks cosy, comfortable, and flexible. It’s ideal for knitting close-fitting, durable socks that mould well to the foot. For thicker, warmer socks, you can also find sport weight or DK weight sock yarn, perfect for winter or extra cushioning. You can learn more about yarn weights here.
