    Every skein of LITLG Fine Sock is hand-dyed in small batches in a studio in West Cork, Ireland, by Caroline, the founder behind Life in the Long Grass, using recipes she has refined over ten years. The colours come from the landscape around her, one stretch of the Atlantic coast, designed in families so that each shade still feels like it belongs to something, and every skein is checked before it leaves the studio, if it is not right, it simply does not go out.

    Fine Sock is a 75% superwash merino, 25% nylon fingering weight base, soft enough for next to skin wear and durable enough to see a pair of socks through plenty of wear.

    Why You'll Love It

    ✔ Hand-dyed in small batches in West Cork, Ireland, with colours drawn from the Atlantic coastline
    ✔ 75% superwash merino for softness, 25% nylon for durability underfoot
    ✔ A fine, light fingering weight suited to socks, shawls and light layers
    ✔ Each skein checked by hand before it leaves the studio
    ✔ From a dyer with ten years of refining her own recipes, not a first attempt at a palette

    Perfect For

    Sock knitters after a base with real durability built in, and anyone drawn to a dyer with a genuine sense of place behind her colours rather than a palette picked for trend. The fine fingering weight also suits shawls, light adult sweaters and children's wear, so one skein rarely has to go to waste.

    A yarn with a landscape behind every colourway, hand-dyed by someone who clearly will not let a skein out the door unless it is right.

    Knitpro mindful retractable tape measure in Teal

    I absolutely love the tool. It's gorgeous looking and very helpful. The tape is wider than usual ones. Doesn't get tangled

    Quality Yarn, Great Service

    Decided to check out the store while on vacation in Singapore and it did not disappoint. It was well stocked with beautiful displays and showed the diversity of quality yarns. As I’m new to crocheting, Cecilia spent over a hour patiently explaining things to me and helping me select some beautiful skeins and shawl pins. Overall, a lovely store with excellent customer service. Highly recommend and will return anytime I’m in Singapore.

    Soft Organic Yarn

    These organic yarn comes in pretty pastel and bright colours with a light sheen. The cottony soft and smooth texture feels comfortable against the skin. We are very happy with the buy!

    Soft and squishy

    Very soft and squishy, can imagine would be very cozy to wear next to skin. And it feels good on the hands to knit with too.
