Malabrigo's Ultimate Sock is hand-dyed in their characteristic style: rich, complex colour with depth that changes as the light shifts: on a base specifically spun for durability rather than just softness. The 75% superwash merino gives it the comfort you'd expect from Malabrigo, and the tighter spin compared to their other lines means it holds up better to the wear a sock demands. At 402m it's generously yarded for a full pair. Hand-dyed in small batches, so buy enough for your project from the same dyelot. Machine washable.
