Cherub Sock is a wonderfully soft blend of nylon & acrylic. The sport weight yarn is light & comfortable to wear. The nylon makes the yarn ideal for socks, but it is also a wonderful choice for baby clothes, as well as adult cardigans & wraps. Easy to care for, the yarn is machine washable & may be tumbled dry on a low heat setting. The modern collection of solids & heathers has a hue for every project.
