The Somerset Marl is a warm, comfortable everyday sock with a wide, 3 x 1 ribbed leg and instep, plain knit sole, heel and toe and 1x1 rib cuff.  The sock is knitted in a marl with the toe and heel in a solid colour. By mixing alpaca and wool, the sock has excellent insulation and wicking properties. By adding nylon, the sock has enough stretch to give a good fit over a range of sizes.  The yarn was spun and organically dyed here in the UK for us.  I've also used it to knit the Somerset Shortie and the Somerset Contrast socks. I make these in three unisex sizes, small (shoe size 4-7), medium (8-10) and large (11-13). Composition: 46% British Alpaca / 46% British Blue Faced Leicester Wool/ 8% Nylon.  This yarn has not been Superwash or shrink resist treated, so please wash and dry gently.
