Natural Fibre Sock Sets

Bluefaced Leicester (BFL) is a wonderful natural fibre alternative to Nylon for sock knitting.  Bluefaced Leicester has better strength than Merino making it a great choice for socks. 

 

Sets contain 100g of machine washable (Superwash BFL approx. 400m per 100g) and 1 x 20g mini skein of coordinating yarn in our ultra soft 4ply Superwash Merino (approx. 80m per 20g), ideal for using as a contrast. 

 

For long lasting socks we reccomend you use your BFL for the toes and heel and using a tight guage.
