Edelweiss

Edelweiss, a super snuggly sock yarn in mini-skeins, is available in over 50 beautiful colors. It's a super soft yet stable sock yarn with 10% Alpaca, a seemingly small amount, but it makes all the difference.  It offers the best of both worlds: the sturdiness and machine washability of a proper sock yarn and the required softness to also use it for accessories and garments.  The cute 25g balls gives you so much flexibility for colorwork, not only in your socks but also in shawls, sweaters and everything you like to be warm, soft and easy-care.  Take a look at the Poppy Sock Booklet for multi-colored sock ideas.
