Catalog > Stars and Stripes, Forever - Tiger Twist

Stars and Stripes, Forever - Tiger Twist-hand dyed, patriotic, yarn, merino, wool, self patterning, striping, America, July 4th, flag, old glory, sock yarn, limited edition
Stars and Stripes, Forever - Tiger Twist
They are here!  Show off your patriotism with this self-patterning sock yarn.  For 2010, the base yarn is Tiger Twist, a beautiful tight twist merino yarn spun just for socks!

Batches of this yarn will suddenly appear over the course of the summer and early fall, so if there aren't any available right now, do stop by again.  Stars & Stripes is a limited edition yarn that I only make in the warm weather months.

The yarn patterns as shown.....on regular sized socks you will have approximately 2 rows red, 2 white, 2 red, 2 white, 2 red, then about 4 rows of blue with white stars.  To make this yarn requires me to first wind a 40+ foot skein, dye it, then rewind it to regular skeins. 

100% Superwash Merino Wool
Nice tight bouncy twist makes stretchy and durable socks.
~420 yards, 4 ounces (Plenty to make an adult pair of socks)
7-8 stitches per 1" on # 2 needles
Hand dyed with professional acid dyes
For best results, hand wash cool with wool safe wash, dry flat.  Can machine wash.

Enjoy a fun and simple summer project, get your Stars & Stripes, Forever before they are gone!!!
