Another beautiful yarn from Koigu, but this time, there is silk involved! It's just like the KPPPM sock yarn, but is 50% silk. It feels great, knits up beautifully, and comes in a gorgeous array of colors.

A very pretty yarn with very little pattern support. It's much softer to work with than a pure linen yarn, and would still make a cool, lightweight garment.

The poor man's answer to Prism yarn. Beautiful colors, all different yarn types combined.

I made this sweater to match the Kureyon socks I made. This is a medium soft wool of beautiful colors, but unfortunately, it has slubs of unspun fiber along the way. To manage these slubs, I just wet those spots and rubbed the heck out of them between my hands to felt them down to the same size as the rest of the yarn.

Kureyon Sock Yarn

Kureyon Sock

Noro

Fiber: 70% Wool, 30% Nylon

Yardage: 462

Gauge: 7.5 per inch on needle size: 2

Just like the heavier weight Kureyon, this sock yarn also has the little slubs of unspun fiber along the way. I used the spit splice method to whittle them down to the right size.

Silk Garden Sock
Noro
40% wool, 25% Silk, 25% Nylon and 10% Mohair.
Yardage: 328 yards
Gauge: 6.5 sts per inch on a US #3 needle.
My Color: S8

This will make beautiful socks and scarves, in a bit heavier that normal sock yarn weight. The color changes are very pleasing and typically Noro.
