Description

Who doesn’t love a rainbow? This superwash (non-felting) merino single-ply rainbow sock yarn is a definite multicolour feast for your eyes.

Sock or fingering weight yarns aren’t just for knitting socks – they are also perfect for knitting or crocheting jumpers or cardigans. If you want to make an extra fluffy and cosy wearable, knit it double with some Rainbow Connection mohair yarn for the the most fluffy and cozy of projects.

This is a repeatable colourway. If you’d like a larger quantity of skeins or in another yarn base, please contact me and I’ll be happy to custom dye it for you.

A word on independently dyed yarns like mine

Because designer indie-dyed yarns are created in small batches, differences may occur between them (and often even in the same batch). Because of this, I advise you buy as many skeins as needed for your project and alternate them to avoid pooling and colour mismatches. Find out more in our Fibre Bases and Info page.

Please note that colours show true on my monitor but your settings may differ from mine. Thank you for understanding.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

  • Keep yarn in a dry room away from direct sunlight. Airtight boxes are recommended. Don’t place anything heavy on top of the skein to avoid squishing it.
  • I recommend adding lavender sachets to the storage container for pest prevention.
  • Hand wash your finished product separately using wool-specific detergents, dry flat. Hand dyed fibres may bleed a little in the first couple of washes.
