King Cole Simply Footsie 4Ply is designed with one job in mind: giving you a durable, comfortable sock yarn that holds up to real wear. The 7% PBT fibre adds a natural resilience and stretch recovery, so your finished socks keep their shape through repeated wearing and washing. Whether you’re knitting classic ribbed ankle socks or a cosy knee-high pair, this yarn is built to go the distance.
The acrylic-dominant blend knits up with a smooth, consistent texture that makes it easy to work with on fine 3.25mm needles. You’ll find the stitches sit neatly and evenly, which is particularly satisfying when working through heel turns and gusset shaping. The slight bounce from the PBT content gives your fabric a comfortable give without going loose or baggy.
Simply Footsie 4Ply comes in a cheerful range of solid and striped colourways that suit both grown-up and children’s sock projects. The clear, bright tones show off simple stitch patterns and self-striping effects to great effect. You’ll find shades to suit a quick pair of children’s ankle socks just as well as a more considered adult design.
At 430 metres per 100g ball, you have more than enough yarn to complete a generous adult sock pair with a single ball, making your project planning refreshingly straightforward. The fully synthetic composition means these socks can go straight into the washing machine, which is exactly what hardworking handknitted socks need. This makes Simply Footsie a sensible choice for knitting gifts that the recipient will actually wear regularly.
