Contains everything you need (except knitting needles) to create a cozy pair of warm, durable Shetland wool socks. Socks are knit from Goat Knoll Shetland wool blend sock yarn which is 70% Shetland wool and 30% nylon. The Shetland wool is from the sheep on our farm and spun at an Oregon mill. The nylon has been added to provide additional strength to the sock so that it will handle the abrasion given to our beloved hand knit socks by our feet and shoes. Kit contains 250 yards of sock monkey gray yarn, 100 yards of white (handspun) and 5 yards of red (also handspun). These socks have a good length to the top to keep your legs warm and toasty in the winter. Socks are knit on size 2 (2.75mm) double pointed knitting needles. Sock wil fit a size 7-8 lady's foot, however instructions are included (and extra yarn) to make it some larger if required. You'll have to get your own sock monkey. This one is mine, all mine.
