Mille Colori Socks & Lace Luxe

Absolutely stunning, this is Lang's concept of what a fancy, spangled laceweight yarn should be. It is two ply, with a very long color repeat plus just a little glitz-- great for lace projects, socks, fine knits, and more. This yarn is a superwash sock yarn. The colors are completely appealing, and the yarn is so soft. Yet it has the nylon necessary for good sock wear.

 Just one ball for a pair of socks, or a generous lacy scarf. But use it for more than that--this yarn would make a fabulous big shawl (3-4 balls) or a simple halter top layered under dressy winter clothing that would just knock 'em dead!
