Perfect Pair Gradient Sock Set - Squishy Sock Base

The joy of watching a gradient flow from colour to colour as you knit row by row is an experience like none other! Without pesky knots and joins, your next knit will be a breeze with this colour shifting yarn.

Using a circular knitting machine, I held two strands of Squishy Sock Base together to create a special yarn blank for this gradient dyeing technique. Because the finished sock blank is a little tighter than my typical one stranded gradients, there is a gentle dapple effect of colour throughout the yarn. Embrace it! It's part of the beauty of hand dyed wool and will bring lots of life and personality to hand knits.

You'll receive two identical mini skeins, with the perfect amount of yardage for your next sock project! Each skein is 60 grams and 230 yards of fingering weight yarn, with two together coming to 120 grams and 460 yards in total. 

Squishy Sock Base is a great choice for sock knitting, as it's a sturdy and reliable blend of 80% Superwash Merino Wool and 20% Nylon. It's plump, 8ply make up gives it an extra squish factor, while remaining soft yet durable for items that are meant for every day wash and wear.

I always recommend hand washing your items, and laying them flat to dry. Although the superwash treatment of this yarn is extra forgiving of the odd spin cycle or two. 

I always try to take photos that best represent the colours, although there maybe discrepancies from one monitor to the next while browsing the photos.
