Collection: King Cole Norse 4Ply

King Cole Norse 4Ply is a self-striping 4 ply yarn from King Cole, with 420m per ball. It works to a tension of 28 stitches and 36 rows to 10cm over stocking stitch, which puts it in familiar territory for anyone used to knitting socks, shawls and fine-gauge accessories.

The long colour runs do the patterning for you, so a plain stocking stitch sock or a simple garter shawl comes out looking far more involved than it is. With that much yardage in a ball, it also suits colourwork accessories and lighter garments where you want a good stretch of one colour before the next appears.

There are seven shades in the range, named after Norse figures including Loki, Thor and Modi. The full range is in stock at our shop in Ledbury, and we offer free UK delivery on orders over £50. If you would like to see the shades wound and knitted up before choosing, do come in and have a look.
