King Cole Footsie 4Ply - Red Onion (4916)

King Cole Footsie 4Ply in Red Onion is a beautiful variegated acrylic yarn that combines practicality with visual interest. This 4-ply weight yarn is composed of 93% acrylic and 7% PBT, which adds strength and structure to make it especially durable for sock knitting. Each 100g ball contains approximately 430 metres of yarn, and it works best on 3.25mm needles. The variegation is named after sumptuous fruits, and Red Onion's rich tones live up to this fruity inspiration.

Footsie 4Ply is ideal for creating hardwearing socks that will hold their shape wash after wash. Because it's acrylic rather than wool, it's perfect for those with wool allergies who still want to enjoy fun, colourful sock projects. The yarn's structure means your finished socks will have excellent longevity, standing up to regular wear without losing elasticity. We're delighted to stock King Cole Footsie 4Ply here at our Ledbury shop, so you can start your next sock project with yarn you can see and feel before you buy.
