This combination offers an enjoyable knit resulting in beautiful, long lasting socks.

Twist Light has a nice, tight ply, which would make for stunning projects with great stitch definition at super fine weight. Every hank is unique, so there are no dye lots. machine wash cold, air dry flat. A three ply sock yarn, Madelinetosh Twist Light has 420 yards of fingering weight merino wool yarn per skein, completing most projects with only 1 or 2 skeins
