Sock Varicolor: Premium Self-Striping Sock Yarn Guide
Share
Are you ready to create socks that practically knit themselves into stunning color patterns? Sock Varicolor from Ice Yarns is a game-changer for knitters who want professional-looking results without the hassle of managing multiple yarn colors.
This self-striping sock yarn takes all the guesswork out of creating beautiful, evenly-spaced color transitions. Each 100-gram ball contains 420 meters of carefully planned color sequences that create perfect stripes as you knit. No more worrying about when to change colors or whether your stripes will match between socks.
The magic happens in the blend: 75% superwash wool provides warmth and natural stretch, while 25% polyamide adds the durability your socks need to withstand daily wear. The superwash treatment means you can toss your finished socks right in the washing machine without fear of shrinkage or felting.
What makes Sock Varicolor special is its versatility. While it's perfect for socks (hence the name), this superfine weight yarn opens up a world of possibilities. Think lightweight baby blankets, delicate shawls, or cozy fingerless gloves. The 28-stitch gauge gives you the fine detail needed for intricate lacework or cables.
If you love the idea of self-striping yarns, you might also enjoy Silk yarn, which offers incredible drape for shawls, or Baby Merino for soft baby projects. For those who prefer solid colors, Kristal yarn provides the same superfine weight in beautiful solid shades.
The color combinations available in Sock Varicolor are thoughtfully curated. From earthy browns and greens to vibrant blues and pinks, each package contains four balls that work together harmoniously. This means you get enough yarn for a full pair of adult socks with beautiful color coordination.
One of the best features is the predictable yardage. At 459 yards per ball, you can plan your projects with confidence. A typical pair of adult socks uses about 350-400 yards, so you'll have enough for reinforcing heels and toes, or even a matching pair of mitts.
