Malabrigo Ultimate Sock Minis | Frank Ochre

Ultimate Sock takes our sock yarn and elevates it a level by adding 25% Nylon to the superwash merino that everyone already knows and loves. It is perfect to knit your lovely socks and make sure they will be resistant and durable at the same time.

Ultimate Sock, now available in 20g mini skeins that are especially designed for colorwork details like stripes, cuffs, heels, toes, or color changes in garments. The new Minis bring all the beloved qualities of our classic sock yarn (75% Superwash Merino Wool and 25% Nylon) into a smaller format.

This 4-ply fingering weight yarn is durable, resistant, and soft at the same time, making it ideal for adding a creative touch to your projects.

Great for: Colorwork socks, accent sections, decorative details, or projects that require durability and resistance to friction.

Each mini skein contains approximately 84 yards (77 meters) in 20 grams.

 Great for: Socks and garments with a lot of friction.

 Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. Skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. 

Skeins are hand dyed in small batches of 10 so color variance is normal (even from skein to skein) based on dye lot and monitor/device settings. May not appear exactly as shown.
