| Here is a closeup of the Ragtime Farm Sport Weight yarn in the Purple Tones colorway. This smooth, beautiful, beefy yarn lends itself well to warm, wonderful socks and other fine gauge knits.
This yarn knits to a gauge of approximately 29 stitches to 4" on size 2 needles. Think of the cozy knitwear you could make — and at 770 yards, the generously sized skeins make for economical knitting. You could make two pairs of socks from each skein! Most boutique yarns ask the same price for half as much yarn.
