Muse

Muse – 80/20 Merino Nylon Fingering

We named this base Muse rather than "Sock" for a simple reason: it’s designed for much more than just footwear.

This 80% Superwash Merino and 20% Nylon blend balances softness and structural strength. The nylon provides the abrasion resistance needed for high-wear items like socks and mittens, while the high merino content keeps it soft enough against the skin for shawls, lightweight sweaters, and hats. It absorbs dye deeply, offers crisp stitch definition, and performs reliably on knitting needles, crochet hooks, and knitting machines.

Best suited for: Socks, shawls, lightweight garments, hats, mittens, and crochet accessories.
