Prestige Yarns Fiori Sock

Why you'll love it

Fiori Sock ticks all the boxes, it’s beautifully soft thanks to Australian-grown extra fine merino, yet strong enough to hold up to everyday wear. Whether you’re after something for socks, shawls or garments, this 4ply hand-dyed yarn gives you the durability and stitch definition you need, with a splash of colour that’s bound to make your project shine.

This yarn glides off the needles with ease and feels lovely against the skin. At 19.5 microns or finer, it’s soft enough for next-to-skin projects and gentle enough for baby knits, too. The nylon content keeps it sturdy and pill-resistant, so your work looks fresh even after regular use.

Hand-dyed in Australia, Fiori Sock comes in a stunning palette of semi-solids and variegated colourways inspired by the Australian landscape. No two skeins are quite the same, which makes every project feel just that little bit more special.

Fiori Sock is a reliable, versatile yarn that’s easy to work with and made to last.

This is a hand dyed yarn and each skein is unique. For best results, we recommend alternating skeins when you work with it.

Yarn Weight vs Yarn Ply

"Ply" technically refers to the construction of the yarn. It's the number of strands that are twisted together to make a single piece of yarn. While "ply" historically related to the thickness (or weight) of the yarn, today's spinning technology means that the number of plies doesn't always correspond directly to the thickness of the yarn.

However, in some countries, including Australia & the UK, the numbering system of yarn ply still refers to the thickness of the yarn, so it's possible to have a single ply 4ply yarn! - this means that the yarn is constructed of a single ply, but has the traditional thickness of a 4ply sock / fingering yarn).
