So who’s a sockaholic? Me haha, yes, I put my hands up, its me, I am a complete sockaholic and I always have (at least) one sock on the go. So as you can imagine I was thrilled when I had to make up a sock sample for the shop in the new Rico Socks Soft Spin.
What a gorgeous yarn this is – it is beautifully soft and the subtle stripes are just gorgeous.
Brand new this season I do think its going to be very very popular. Its not as bold as its solid striped or fairisle cousins but its beauty is in its gentleness of tones.
I do also think it would make a great background colour for fairisle projects too such as Ravelry: Basket Socks pattern by Alena Malevitch

What do you think?
This yarn will be perfect for socks, accessories and would make a super stripey sweater or tank top. I wonder what it would ne like held double with a strand of Mohair Silk laceweight too? Ooh the possibilities are endless………Rico Socks Soft Spin 4ply / Sock – Yarn etc…
