Now your knitted Christmas cheer is guaranteed! Christmas Sock Wool Glitter is a charming sock yarn with beautiful print in classic Christmas colors.
This is basically a completely classic type of sock yarn, but with a twist in the form of a thin glitter thread in gold. The yarn is composed of superwash wool, polyamide, and 2% polyester which is the gold thread that creates the beautiful glitter effect.
Christmas Sock Wool Glitter is an obvious choice when you’re knitting Christmas socks for the whole family. The combination of wool and polyamide provides optimal durability and at the same time the yarn feels comfortable and warm. The glitter thread in the yarn is quite thin, and although the effect is very obvious visually you will not feel the glitter thread when the socks are in use.
Christmas Sock Wool Glitter is perfect for a cozy knitting project up until Christmas. Handknit socks are simply the best! But also remember that sock yarn can be used for much more than just sock knitting. The sky’s the limit when it comes to crochet and knit Christmas projects in Christmas Sock Wool.

This yarn is so thick and squishy, I love it!
Some reviews have mentioned that the glitter is irritating on the feet, others have said it's fine. Unfortunately I don't know as I got this yarn to knit Christmas stockings for the family. It was so hard only choosing 4 of the colorways.
However, I did enjoy this yarn enough that I would consider getting more to knit some proper socks. The glitter is a thin ribbon like plastic that's twisted in with the yarn so there is a chance that if you don't have sensitive ankles this yarn won't irritate your skin. I find that glitter yarn made this way is less irritating than other types of glitter yarn.

Christmas Sock Wool Glitter works up really well. It is soft and does not scratch. The colorway is absolutely beautiful. I made slipper socks designed by Alysha Littlejohn from Littlejohn's yarn and crafts posted on you-tube. I used a size D/3-3.25mm hook and one strand. You can make a chain and weave it through the top if you like your slipper socks snug. Thank you Hobbii for a great product.

Oh my, I just received my Christmas Sock Wool and it looks beautiful! I ordered the glitter and vintage they are all so beautiful, I haven't decided if I am going to use this for my knitted bears clothing or actually for socks which will be the first. If you are on the fence about this yarn, don't be it is wonderful.

I got some skeins of this yarn for xmas socks originally, but with the glitter in it, it didn't feel good on my feet - unless I wore other socks underneath. I decided to make a vest out of them instead. That worked great. It's nice and warm and looks very much like holiday...

This yarn arrived today and I couldn't be more pleased. The price is fantastic for the quality and size of the ball. I can't wait to cast this on! This was my first purchase from hobbii but not my last. I was surprised by how quickly my package arrived too.
