A superwash merino wool yarn that is a great sock yarn. It is a 2-ply construction with a very high twist per inch, which results in more durability and good stitch definition. This would also be an excellent choice for baby garments because it is machine washable and fine gauges are so lovely for baby stuff while remaining fairly quick small projects. It washes up very soft for next to the skin garments.
This yarn is put up in 100g hanks of approx.420 yards each. The recommended gauge would be 7-9 stitches per inch on size 0-2 needles. You should knit socks at a tighter gauge for increased durability. One skein should be enough for an average adult pair of socks.
This yarn works for making shawls as well as shown in this Anne Hanson design, Cluaranach. It has a wonderful drape when knit on larger needles as in this shawl, where #7 US were used, taking three skeins of Classic Merino Supersock to make the Petite Stole with enough left for a small project like small socks, fingerless mitts or a hat.
