Kihnu Socks Kit
The Kihnu socks by Aleks Byrd are a colourful modern twist on a traditional sock style from the island it is named after. These socks have colourwork detailing and sock teeth pattern (‘sukahambad’) with braids and sleek ribbing down the leg to the toes and heel, reminiscent of its intricate traditional inspiration.
Aleks designed these socks using our Swanky Sock base!
We’ve put together kits in her original combination as well as a few other tone on tone options! You can choose two full skeins which will give you enough yarn to create two pairs OR you can choose the option for one full skein and one mini to create one pair! Each kit also comes with our tiny sock stitch marker set we created with sock knitters in mind. Each set includes: Stitch markers fit up to size US 3 needle plus 1 wooden sock removable stitch marker for BOR/Progress Keeper.
Swanky sock is a silky blend of merino, cashmere and nylon with beautiful drape and sheen, perfect for socks, shawls and any project calling for fingering weight yarn.
80% superwash merino, 10% cashmere, 10% nylon
400 yards/115 grams
