Iridium | 4ply Sock Yarn

Iridium is named after the Greek goddess of rainbows Iris. This high density metal can be found on earth but mostly in meteors and as it falls it releases brightly coloured salts. Iridium features a light grey base with dense speckles of jade, violet, yellow, blue and pink. Helen's unique dye technique ensures that you get a consistent look throughout the skein meaning this is a low pooling yarn. This listing is for 100g of Merino Nylon sock 4ply. This is a great universal wool sock yarn, super soft for shawls and close to the skin woollens. The added nylon gives strength for super socks and makes them really hardwearing. 4ply/ Fingering, 75% Superwash Merino 25% Nylon, 425 metres approx per 100g All yarn is hand dyed, in small batches using the highest quality acid dyes.
