We are excited to introduce one of Malabrigo's most-requested bases of yarn: Ultimate Sock, which contains 25% Nylon!

Ultimate Sock takes their sock yarn and elevates it a level by adding 25% Nylon to the superwash merino that everyone already knows and loves. It is perfect to knit your lovely socks and make sure they will be resistant and durable at the same time.

Great for: Socks and garments with a lot of friction.

Please note, when these yarns are hand-dyed, the same formula is used each time but skeins may vary one from the other even within the same dye lot. To ensure random colour distribution, we encourage you to work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating on every row in circular knitting and every other row in flat knitting. This blending creates a gorgeous fabric with depth and nuance.

The differences from one dye lot to another can be very subtle, or extremely noticeable, especially on variegated yarns.
