A blend of high-quality Blue Faced Leicester (BFL) Wool and nylon, Jackass Collective Sock yarn is ideal for sturdy, comfortable socks with a luxurious feel and exceptional durability. Like any wool, hand washing is recommended though this is a superwash treated sock yarn but do not put in the dryer.
The BFL wool is mulesing free and sourced from a Canadian mill, and then hand-dyed in Vancouver, BC, by Jackass Collective.
