Slinky Malinky, Hand Dyed Sock Yarn - Lichen
Strong yet smooth with a sheen...Slinky Malinky, it knits like a dream!
Slinky Malinky is a superwash Merino sock yarn that is fortified with natural Tencel giving it the necessary strength and durability of a great sock yarn without the use of nylon.
Yes, it is great for socks, but it is equally well suited for sweaters & cardigans, knit wear for babies and toddlers, hats, gloves and shawls. It is very smooth and has a wonderful drape.
Slinky Malinky is superbly hand dyed by US artisans in our local independent dye studio. We offer solid and self-striping colorways for classy striped socks made the easy way. Mix and match to your heart's content!
