This DK-weight sock yarn from Opal is ideal for thick, cosy socks – perfect for wellies, walking boots, or padding around the house on cold days.
Supplied in generous 150g balls, there’s plenty of yarn for a full pair of socks, even for larger feet. The winter-inspired colourways are cleverly dyed to create a repeating self-striping or variegated effect, so your socks will be siblings (if not identical twins).
With 25% nylon for added strength, this yarn is durable enough for hard-wearing socks and practical garments, and it’s machine washable for easy care.
