Lopi Hosuband

80% wool/20% Nylon · 130 m · 100 g · 4–4.5 mm

Description

Product information "Lopi Hosuband - col. 0005 light grey"

Lopi Hosuband yarn combines wool with nylon: wool gives it warmth and springiness, and the knitted fabric shows texture clearly. It is chosen for jumpers, socks, mittens and hats.

Is it suitable for socks?

Yes, wool with nylon is suitable for socks: nylon helps the yarn withstand abrasion, while wool adds springiness.

How does it feel against the skin?

The yarn is soft and pleasant to the touch. Hand wash your garment gently: friction in warm water can felt the wool.

Will it work with my pattern, and which needles should I use?

Check the Aran weight and tension of 12 stitches per 10 cm against your pattern; start with 4–4.5 mm circular needles.

Use the yarn requirements for your chosen pattern as a guide and make a tension square, then wash it. If your pattern calls for a different yarn thickness, take a look at other Lopi yarns.
