Cashmerino Luxury Sock $30
Weight: Fingering
Fiber: 81% Merino, 10% Nylon, 9% Cashmere
Yardage: 355 yards (325 m)100 grams
This is a luxurious sock yarn — the kind you find yourself sitting around and petting. It’s soft and sultry enough for shawls and sweaters, but the 9% nylon content gives it tensile strength and the ability to hold its shape for socks or other more challenging usage, with very low pilling.
This differs only slightly from Elliebelly MCN High Twist in fiber content, but as implied by the names, this yarn has a more traditional twist, as opposed to the tightly beaded high twist. It’s really impossible to decide between them, just go ahead and resign yourself to getting one of each.
