Sock - "Hel"

The Sock is a super soft yarn made with extrafine merino wool and a little polyamid for durability. Perfect for socks, shawls, clothing and anything worn directly on skin because of the soft merino. This yarn is easy to work with, smooth and round with a great stitch definition, and your finished project is easy to care for, the merino being resistant to pilling and dirt repellant.

Our Mina Dyeworks yarns are dyed with love in our shop in Utrecht by my mom Mina (read: meena), and are dyed in a smoke and animal free environment. The dye we use has an Oeko-Tex 100 certification and is not harmful to humans, animals and/ or nature. We use acid dyes that are lightfast and leave the yarns in the dye baths until all the dye has been absorbed. The aftercare process is where we wash the yarns and make sure all the residue dye has been cleaned off. Even though we do our utmost to make sure the yarn doesn't bleed, not all dyes are made equal and some may bleed even after all this effort. So we advise to wash the finished items with cool water (30 degrees max) with similar colors, either in the machine or by hand. Dry flat.
