Alpaca Sock - Tickle, Tickle


Tickle, Tickle is a colorway representing the popular Sesame Street character, Elmo!! He is mostly red with a flash of bright orange. Inspired by the wonderful works of Jim Henson.

This is an incredibly soft 4 ply yarn that is a blend of superfine alpaca, superwash merino and nylon. This yarn is wonderful for socks, but would also be perfect for shawls and hats. As you can see from the photo, this yarn has a bit of a "hairy" halo to it, which so may find itchy but I've found it to be quite soft. It tends to take dye a little less vibrantly than my merino/nylon blends.
