Description from Pagewood Farm: Our Yukon sock yarn is a perfect example of a winning combination. The merino superwash gives it washability (hand wash or machine wash gentle cycle). The nylon gives it wearability (no holes in these heels). The bamboo makes it soft and lofty and gives it that “sheen.”

Our 450-yard skeins give you plenty of yarn for a full pair of socks. Colorways in the Yukon tend to be soft and almost muted but with that bamboo “sheen.” It’s no wonder that Yukon continues to be one of our top sellers.*
