Yorkshire Plain Wool Sock
£12.60
The Yorkshire Plain wool sock is a ribbed short sock, suitable for both men and women. The ribbing makes the sock appear narrower than it is. They are made from a blend of 82% Yorkshire Blue Faced Leicester wool with 9% UK alpaca knitted with 9% nylon for stretch and added durability. The Mushroom variation is naturally coloured UK alpaca with 10% nylon and is exceptionally soft and warm, however we only have a few pairs of the large size left in this.
Buy 3 or more pairs for £6.90 per pair.
Description
Yorkshire Plain Wool Sock
I have these comfortable and warm Yorkshire plain wool socks knitted in Leicestershire from my own sock yarns. To make the yarn, I bought the fleeces from farmers around the Yorkshire Dales and Cumbria. Before I moved, I used to sort the fleece on my own farm and blend it with British alpaca and then have it spun and dyed elsewhere in the UK.
I blend 82% Yorkshire Blue Faced Leicester wool with 9% UK alpaca and have it knitted with 9% nylon for stretch and added durability. These are ankle length socks with a ribbed foot. These socks have a narrower foot than some of our others, and the ribbing makes the sock seem even narrower.
The Mushroom variation is naturally coloured UK alpaca with 10% nylon, but I only have a few pairs of the Large size left. They are exceptionally soft and warm. The other three colours have been dyed in the Scottish Borders in shades of Charcoal, Navy and Soft Olive.
My Yorkshire Plains are suitable for both men and women. I offer three different sizes, which are:
Small – shoe size 4-7
Medium – shoe size 8-10
Large – shoe size 11 – 13
Buy 3 or more pairs for £6.90 per pair.

Care Information
Our natural fibre, unisex socks are kinder to your feet than synthetic alternatives, but this means they need a gentle wash. We recommend our alpaca and wool socks are gently hand washed and rinsed in tepid water, squeezing gently rather than wringing. A vigorous machine wash (whatever the temperature) with too much detergent or long spin, may result in shrinkage.
Leave to dry naturally and do not put in a tumble dryer.

Much too thin and tight. Very disappointed.
Kim K –
I’m sorry that you are unhappy with the Yorkshire Plain sock. i think the ribbing does give it a tighter fit. You are welcome to return it if you prefer. best wishes Kim

The mushroom are different to the others in this range as they are 90% alpaca. They are softer and they fit better than the wool / alpaca mix socks but not a patch on alpaca socks I have bought elsewhere.
