    About Bluem Sock
    75% Bluefaced Leicester / 25% nylon
    400 metres / 437 yards per 100g

    Bluem Sock is spun at a local mill and hand-dyed by Susan and her team at A Room Of My Own in a wide range of beautiful and varied shades. Bluem Sock takes colour extremely well resulting in rich, semi-solid shades. Bluem Sock is a non-superwash yarn spun and should be washed by hand in cool water with a gentle wool wash.

    Bluem sock is a Fingering weight yarn, worsted spun with a high twist making it perfect for socks. The Bluefaced Leicester yarn is a soft but resilient fibre and combined with a small amount of nylon, it creates the perfect fabric for socks. The yarn shows off texture, cables and lace to great effect and the fibre combination takes colour beautifully.

    Bluem Sock is available in both 100g and 25g skeins.

    About Dungarees:

    Dungarees and overalls in all their variations have been everyday wear on farms for many years. My daughter Charlie and I even now have matching denim dungarees for working in the dye studio. These fading dungarees are the inspiration behind the Dungarees colourway, reflecting the many hues of denim blue found in the cloth of such essential  items of workwear.

    Care Instructions
    Handwash in cool water using a gentle wool wash and dry flat.
    Please note
    As these yarns are hand-dyed please be aware that there will be subtle variation between dye lots. Because of this please be sure to purchase enough yarn for your project.
