Hey guys, gals and non-binary pals!
It’s Aiden here, from Undercover Otter, and I’ve got some exciting news to share with you. After some brainstorm sessions with the lovely people that produce our yarn bases, we found room for improvement on our (already pretty friggin’ amazing) Squirm Sock yarn base!
The result is an even softer, springier yarn than ever! Squirm Sock is spun exclusively for Undercover Otter and not available anywhere else. Squirm is a high twist, 4-ply, fingering-weight yarn. The contents are 80% Superwash Merino wool (21.5 microns) and 20% nylon. Each skein contains approximately 400 meters per 100 grams (437 yards per 3.5 oz). The high twist gives the yarn a velvety look and makes it feel next-to-skin soft.
Squirm Sock is perfect for making socks (duh), shawls, cowls and other garments that need a bit of extra cushion. It’s also great for knitting or crocheting toys or any other projects that you want to be extra soft and squishy! It is not only soft but also very durable, making it perfect for garments that you want to have in your life for a long time.
The first batch of this delicious yarn base is now available on our website.
We also offer undyed skeins, which can be used as a neutral cream color to add to your projects. Or, if you’ve got an adventurous streak; dye your own skeins! Squirm takes acid dye very well and saturates easily, making it a perfect yarn for (beginning) dyers to experiment with.
