John Arbon's Exmoor Sock yarn enhances the durable character and bounce of the fibre from their local Exmoor Blueface sheep – a cross breed of the Exmoor Horn (full bodied and hard-wearing) and the Bluefaced Leicester (renowned for its softness and lustre). They added naturally dark browny-black Devon Zwartbles giving extra bounce and a subtle fleck of colour, plus Falklands Corriedale to enhance softness and stitch definition and a hint of Nylon for durability. Exmoor sock yarn is designed to be perfect for socks, whilst still having the versatility to suit garments and accessories that relish a hard wearing, machine washable yarn. If you fancy stripes or colourwork, the Exmoor Sock is available in handy 50g skeins. 200m per 50g 60% Exmoor Blueface, 20% Corriedale, 10% Zwartbles, 10% Nylon Machine wash on wool cycle, using a mild detergent
