I just LOVE mini skeins! Playing around with different colour combinations is such a pleasure. And there’s nothing like wearing rainbows on your feet to bring a smile to your day.

When visiting yarn shows and shops, have you heard the siren call of miniskein packs? It gets me every time, so I’m always on the lookout for good mini skein/scrappy patterns.

Enter the Mini Marvel Socks - a perfect design for minis, leftovers, stashbusting. The socks pair 10x5g minis with a main colour for a joyful knit that keeps you motivated throughout.
