Material: 100% wool

One yarn skein has 2 color gradings. 1 skein is made for 2 socks.

For the 1st sock, unravel the yarn from the outside. Your skein will be stable.
For the 2nd sock use the pendant to unravel the yarn from the inside.

You will find a bead in the centre of the skein. This bead shows you when to finish your sock. This way you won't use too much yarn.

Heel

We recommend knitting the heel with double thread to increase durability.
Simply choose a 2nd ball in a color of your choice.

Use scrap yarn or a second yarncake to darn socks.
