Description

Aloe Sockwool – Yarn with Heart

This beautiful 4ply yarn is perfect for luxurious, long-lasting socks. Made from 75% superwash merino wool and 25% polyamide, it’s soft, durable and infused with Aloe Vera to give an even silkier feel next to your skin.

The Aloe Vera treatment adds a gentle moisturising effect and helps create a smooth, comforting fabric – especially lovely for your feet. It’s an affordable little luxury, and a joy to knit with.

Made by Hjertegarn – or “Heart Yarn” – this yarn is created with care and tradition. Hjertegarn has been producing quality yarns from natural fibres since 1926, and it’s easy to see why they’re part of the Purl &Jane family.

Why choose wool for socks?
Wool, especially merino, is naturally breathable and moisture-wicking. That means your feet stay warm but not sweaty, and you won’t need to wash them as often as synthetic socks because wool naturally resists odour. Once you try hand-knitted socks, there’s no going back.

Brand

Hjertegarn

Since 1926 Hjertegarn has been passionately making quality hand knitting yarns made for natural fibres.Hjertegarn simply translates into Heart Yarn or I like to say Yarn with Heart which exactly is how all the yarn in the Purl &Jane family is.

This yarn is perfect for socks. It would make a fabulous Styx sock and there is enough in one ball to make two and a half pairs in size 5 from one ball.
