True Colors

Rocking Sock is a wonderfully soft superwash merino base. It is 75% Superfine superwash merino and 25% Nylon. This is a really durable and reliable blend. 

75% merino wool and 25% nylon is my absolute favorite for socks. Soft enough to be worn against your skin all day long, and thanks to the nylon, strong enough to hold up for a very long time. Added bonus, wool wicks away moisture, so making camping socks out of this merino wool is ideal.

True Colors

True Colors is a tonal/solid, turquoise blue is so hard to photograph. Of all of my yarns, I have the hardest time getting this one true to color. It is so unfortunate, because let me tell you, this color SINGS.

It pairs so very well with Margaritaville that it whisks me off to a semi-private island every time I use my Breathe and Hope Shawl knit with these colors. The blue is crisp,  bright, clean and solid throughout. The best representation I have of its color is the picture of it paired with my Margaritaville yarn in my Breathe and Hope Shawl. 

I think it would also pair gorgeously with Blue Oyster Cult which has turquoise, blue and black/grey/gold speckles. 

A little about my colorways: I name all of my colorways for song or lyrics. Music is a huge love of my life, as are the fiber arts. If you aren’t sure what lyric or song the yarn you get is named after, it is kind of fun to go take a listen or to look up the artist. 🙂
