Self Patterning Sock Yarn, Schoeller & Stahl Designer Stripes

Schoeller & Stahl Fortissma Sock, Designer, 100g, 425m

Unlike many more 'fairisle' self patterning sock yarns this range has gentle, blended transitions between the wide bands of colour. Each one includes a dark grey and a light grey stripe plus one contrast colour

This self patterning yarn is designed for socks so is durable and washable, however it will also knit to a standard 4 ply pattern. One 100g ball is sufficient for a pair of adult sized socks. Included is a FREE sock knitting pattern which covers most kids/adult sizes (requires a set of 2.5mm double pointed needles and some stitch markers).

Fortissima  sock yarn is a 75% wool, 25% polyamide mix, which is hard wearing and machine washable.

When used for socks the recommended tension/gauge is 30 stitches and 42 rows to 10cm/4inches on 2.5mm needles. The yarn can also be used for a 4 ply pattern with tension/gauge of 28 stitches and 36 rows on 3.25mm needles.

I make every effort to show you colours accurately however, there may be some variation in display on different monitors etc

All my yarn is stored in a smoke-free environment
