This is probably our strongest sock yarn. Bluefaced Leicester is a really robust fiber with a long staple length. This yarn has a toothy texture and makes great socks. We’ve heard of customers wearing their socks for years! The yarn takes the dye very well, and speckles brilliantly. For a super-tight gauge, knit on #1 needles, and for a slightly lighter fabric, use 2.5mm.
