MERYLON 75/25: Approximately 100g/463yds 75/25 superwash Merino wool/nylon. This is an excellent offering of the ubiquitous 75/25 fine fingering/sock yarn that is so useful and versatile.
These were kettle-dyed with a wash of pale violet followed by a wash of intense blue-violet and finished with a variegated wash of deep grey. Finally they were lightly and randomly speckled with turquoise, purple and black. Note that this is a highly variegated colourway and each hank is unique despite being from the same batch. Two socks knit with one hank will be similar but not identical. If using more than one, please alternate.
This is a lovely, soft (but tough!) yarn, great for just about any fingering weight project you can think of. It is perfect for next-to-skin items and baby garments. If you knit socks tightening the gauge slightly will ensure iron-like wear.
While this is superwash treated, I recommend hand washing and drying flat to maintain optimum colour and texture.
