Yarn For Socks - Sock Components

Sock yarn is knitting yarn used to knit socks. Sock yarns are available in different types and thicknesses. The thicker the yarn used, the thicker the finished knitted socks will be.

Many types of yarn, of either natural or synthetic fibers, can be used for sock manufacturing. Either stretch or non-stretch (hard) yarns can be used. In most socks, stretch yarns are used for better fit and performance. The yarns also be dyed or undyed.
