Course 1 -- MJ Yarns Sophistisock
75% Superwash Merino, 15% Nylon, 10% Tencel
Sophistisock is a fabulous blend of scrumptious merino, strong nylon and sparkling tencel. Not only does this yarn have a fabulous hand, the tencel adds a level of sophistication to the color that is unmatched. Because the cellulose fiber doesn't take the dye, the tencel literally sparkles in the light and gives the color a fantastic heather.
MJ Yarns will also be bringing their Silken DK for purchase!
Course 2 -- Knerd 2ply Sock / Kevin's Base
Knerd will be tasting a mix of two yarns. Some of you will be tasting their two ply fingering, which is a 100% superwash Merino. The rest will be tasting "Kevin's Blend" which is a new MCN base.
Course 3 -- Skeindalous Sophia
80% Merino, 10% Cashmere, 10% Nylon
A smooth MCN yarn that will give great stitch definition. Each approximately 100 gram skein has 438 yards.
Skeindalous will be bringing their fabulous self striping yarns as well (for sale, not for tasting!)
Course 4 -- Peepaloo Fields Standard Sock
80% Merino, 20% Nylon
