4ply Yarns suitable for socks
Here you will find the yarns we think are most suitable for sock knitting. Each individual has a different tolerance for sock yarns, and it is up to you to decide what yours is. If the yarn does not contain Nylon, it still may be suitable for sock knitting due to the fiber content or construction, but you may need to adjust the gauge, please see each yarn for more details.
