A perfect blend of warmth and strength to make a hardwearing sock yarn that can stand up to your affection and abuse. Tough Love Sock is our best-selling yarn and knits up beautifully into fine-gauge sweaters, small shawls, as well as socks! Spun from 80% superwash and super soft merino and 20% nylon, this 3-ply yarn is so versatile, knit it firmly for hard wearing socks, knit it loosely for drapey shawls or knit it doubled for a great worsted weight substitute.

Suggested gauge for sock knitting: US 0-1 (2-2.25mm) | 8 sts/1"

Loving my weave with Beach House and Mermaid

I purchased some skeins of Tough Love Sock to weave with for the first time. I am weaving a scarf in some twill patterns and so impressed with the beautiful colors of this yarn! I'm using Beach House and Mermaid and it's coming out so pretty! Highly recommend!

Love the new 6 party colours…

But would love the written pattern for the sample knit with it

Softest yarn!

I made Lisa K Ross’ Secret Forest shawl last year with Sweet Georgia yarns and won Grand Champion over all knitting projects in my county fair this summer. Competing against another Secret Forest shawl in that fair, different colors, different yarn, comparable workmanship, I won because the judge proclaimed it the “softest”!

my favourite sock yarn

I love this yarn so much - it’s soft%2C but wears really well and lasts a long time. It’s so lovely to knit with too - no splitting%2C feels good in your hands%2C and the colours are all just amazing.

I Love Tough Love sock.

I knit a heckuva lot of socks using various yarns, and this is now my favourite.
Slides beautifully along the needles, and I stop to admire the work frequently.
Love the slight variation in colours, it produces beautiful fabric. Thanks you.
