Socks & More 4ply is the signature sock yarn from Norwegian designers Arne & Carlos, whose colourwork patterns and Nordic-inspired aesthetic have earned them a devoted following. The self-patterning colourways are developed to complement their designs, so if you're a fan of their work this is the natural yarn to use. The 75% superwash wool and 25% recycled nylon base is a practical, durable sock construction: the wool provides warmth and comfort, the nylon adds longevity at wear points. Generous yardage at 420m makes it sufficient for a full pair of socks with room to spare.
designed for a job, and excellent at it
Socks & more 4ply is a yarn that we would categorize as a specialist. Some yarns are generalists. Specialist yarns are not. These are designed to excel at a particular task: durable sock yarns, sturdy weaving yarns, hardworking cottons for dishcloths and utility knits. When used for their intended purpose, they perform beautifully.
Designed for socks, this yarn holds up to wear while maintaining stitch definition and elasticity. It’s spun with extra twist and reinforced with nylon, giving it extra strength and resilience for high-wear projects.
Specialists are happiest doing the job they were designed for. Using them outside that role can lead to unexpected results: less elasticity, different wear, or a fabric that behaves differently than you expect. Swatching is especially helpful if you’re planning to experiment.
