happy socks!

happy choicesOur sock yarns are a constantly revolving stock of delightful choices. We try new yarns regularly and rotate the companies and styles we offer to keep the selection fresh and dynamic. This fall we are happy to bring you a product that reflects one of the latest trends in sock knitting--pre-dyed blanks.

Plymouth Happy Choices
is a sock yarn that comes to you knit into a flat piece of stockinette stitch fabric. You unravel the fabric and knit the sock off as you go. the pre-dyed pattern on the blank creates interesting color combinations down the length of your sock as you knit. Think of it as self-striping sock that is a surprise!

Another great feature of this yarn is portability. Socks are already a great "on the go" project, now with the yarn held as one piece of fabric that can be draped over your arm or around your neck, you never have to chase a yarn ball, making socks that much more practical for commuter knitters or anyone who tires of their ball running away or yarn tangling as it comes off the skein.

Finally, Happy Choices includes a free sock pattern, and the pre-dyed stockinette yarn can double as a scarf. Enjoy wearing the dyed blank before you knit it into a pair of socks!
