Dye Candy Super Sock is a high twist yarn, with brilliant stitch definition and it takes colour like a dream. Speckles in particular come out beautifully. Suitable for all your fingering weight projects, this base also makes gorgeous socks. Dye Candy products are dyed in Hutch's studio in Randalstown, Northern Ireland. She personally dyes everything by hand, and loves creating new colourways. As her yarns are dyed in small batches, there will be variations between skeins, even within the same dye lot. If you are planning on a larger project in one colourway, alternating between skeins is the best way to avoid pooling.
