When using yarn dyed with indigo please be aware that is may ‘crock’ off while knitting onto hands and needles. It may continue to crock off with wear wherever pressure is applied. Please note that this is not considered a fault, but the normal wearing process of indigo. You can read more about it here: https://www.woollymammothfibrecompany.com/faq

This yarn has been spun up especially for WMFC and it’s super special. It is a nylon free, non- superwash UK sourced and spun yarn suitable for socks. It has a higher than usual twist, making it durable yet comfortable on the toes. It would also be suitable for shawls or perhaps even a lightweight sweater! It is a 3-ply construction (three strands twisted together make up the thread), and is therefore more rounded than the Natural Sock.
