Classic Abby Sock Batt RASPBERRY

What makes a great blend for socks? There's no one single answer, but this Corriedale/Nylon blend provides a great balance of crisp yet soft, strong yet gentle, with excellent absorbency, lighter weight than wool alone, easy to spin thin enough to make a 2-ply or a 3-ply sock yarn, and good crimp for cushiony feel knit up.

We love the resulting yarn whether knitting by hand or with our circular sock machine! Depending on how you spin, the yarn structure you choose, the sock pattern you select, and the size of the socks, most spinners will want 2-3 of these batts to spin a pair.
