Artemisia is a high twist sock blend of 80% Cupro / 20%Nylon , a true fingering sock weight with 380m/100gr.
Cupro is made from cotton stems and leaves, created in a similar way as bamboo and tencel. This Cupro is produced in Japan, in a close loop production, meaning that the components used in the production are repetitively reused making it as environmentally friendly as Tencel is.
Artemisia is soft, with a good bounce, slight shine and stitch definition. Nylon adds elasticity and memory, the long staple cotton fibers make it smooth.
This sock yarn is not only for socks, but would also work perfectly for any accessories, shawls and garments as well. It has a good drape and thanks to the nylon and the high twist it helps the garments hold their shape.
