Exmoor Sock 4-ply from John Arbon Textiles is a celebration of Exmoor, a beautiful area in North Devon in the UK. Exmoor boasts stunning countryside and is home to this worsted specialist spinning mill. Exmoor’s rolling hills are dotted with sheep including the local Exmoor Blueface, a crossbreed of the Exmoor Horn and Bluefaced Leicester, which takes center stage in Exmoor Sock.
Every element of this blended, washable yarn brings intention to the final strand. Exmoor Blueface, the cornerstone wool, offers body, durability, softness and lustre. Falklands Corriedale is included to enhance the softness and stitch definition. It also locks in the Exmoor Blueface thanks to its longer staple length. Devon Zwartbles lends a bit of color with its naturally dark fleece. And to make your handknit socks stand the test of time, a bit of nylon is mixed in.
