Yak Sock - Superwash Merino/Yak/Nylon - hand dyed yarn - Ready to Ship

A Superwash Merino/Yak/Nylon blend - often referred to as "yak sock" yarn - combines the luxurious softness of Merino wool, the warmth and richness of yak fibre, and the durability of nylon. The natural grey tone of the undyed yak fibres creates a beautifully heathered, earthy base that adds depth and a unique character to the yarn, making colours appear rich and slightly muted when dyed.

This blend is perfect for high-wear accessories like socks, gloves, and hats, providing both softness and resilience. The superwash treatment makes it easy to care for, while the nylon adds strength and stretch, helping projects maintain their shape. With its combination of warmth, softness, and natural elegance, this yarn is ideal for creating pieces with a cosy, rustic appeal.

I would be happy to wind your skeins into cakes at no cost, please leave a message at checkout if you'd like that. Otherwise your yarn will be shipped in skeins.

I use acid dyes that result in vibrant permanent colours. I recommend to handwash a ready item in cool water with as little movement as possible for best results. Some colours might bleed at first wash.
