Cool, Breathable Comfort for Year-Round Making Step away from heavy wool and embrace the light, airy feel of Laines du Nord Summer Socks. Expertly crafted in Italy, this yarn is the perfect solution for those who want to knit or crochet socks, accessories, and lightweight garments that can be worn comfortably in spring and summer. The high cotton content ensures breathability and moisture-wicking properties, while a touch of nylon provides the necessary stretch and "memory" for a perfect fit that doesn't sag. Featuring stunning, multi-colored self-striping patterns, this yarn does all the colorwork for you, resulting in vibrant, professional-looking projects with every skein. Product Highlights Summer-Ready Fiber: The 88% cotton blend is exceptionally soft against the skin and ideal for those with wool sensitivities. Self-Patterning Design: Each colorway is dyed to create effortless stripes and transitions, making it a joy to watch your project develop. Italian Craftsmanship: Produced by Laines du Nord, known for their high-quality standards and innovative dyeing techniques. Perfect Fit: Unlike 100% cotton yarns which can be inelastic, the added nylon ensures your socks maintain their shape and stay snugly on your feet.
