Sock Options sock yarn comes in a number of fibers and weights to suit all your desires.

Perfect is my favorite sock yarn -- soft and cushy with a lovely twist, this yarn knits up quickly on size 1 or 2 needles. It is ever so slightly thicker than the normal fingering at 350yrds to 4oz and creates the most wonderful fabric. This is a 100% superwash merino yarn.

Satin is a Merino/Tencel belnd and is sooo soft with a wonderful sheen. It is a 50% tencel/50% superwash merino blend. This is another nice fngering weight at 400yrds./4oz.

Shimmer is a great new offering with just the right amount of luster. It is a 60% superwash merino, 30% bamboo, and 10% nylon yarn in a fingering weight of 400 yrds. to 4oz. And best of all? Not only does the bamboo combined with nylon add a lot of strength to this yarn, but the bamboo is soft AND anti-bacterial!

Classica is a wonderful soft and smooth 80% superwash merino, 20% nylon fingering weight yarn put up in approximately 4oz, 420 yarn skeins. Fabulous for socks and many, many other knits.

Good Harbor, named after my favorite beach in my home town of Gloucester, MA, is a 70% superwash merino, 30% seacell blend. The seacell lends a lovely subtle sheen to the yarn as well as antibacterial qualities to the yarn. Each skein is 4oz and approx. 378yards. Please be aware you will find the occasional slub of seacell as part of the yarn's texture and unique quality.
Now, while we all lurve our sock yarns, admittedly, there are, at times, other items to knit that require a different yarn. Bearing that in mind, I have selected a few other fabuloous yarns for your knitting pleasure, all also available in all Sereknity colorways.
Sweet -- A 50% alpaca, 30% merino, 20% silk blend with a slightly fuzzy halo and an ooohhh so soft hand. Bear in mind this yarn does tend to take the dye in less saturated hues for a slightly softer look. Each skein is approx 4oz. and 230yrds, Dk/Lt. worsted.
Luxe -- 100% Mongolian cashmere! Oh. Wow. 400 yrds, 2oz. This is a nice heavy laceweight/light fingering. (You could absolutely make socks out of this. Just sayin'.)
Ayre -- My hand-painted and hand-dyed take on Jaggerspun Zephyr Laceweight. I love the way this yarn takes dye and the stitch definition, sheen, and hand are second to none for lacework. This comes standard in monster 1250 yards skeins (4 oz.), enough for most full shawls. If your intended project takes more or less, however, I am happy to make up a customized lot.
