How to choose a good sock yarn?

Sock yarn is a yarn specifically designed for wool socks, that can withstand wear and washing.

When choosing sock yarn, you should pay attention to its composition, thickness, and twist. Good sock yarn contains a reinforcement (often polyamide), which increases durability – without reinforcement, sock yarn will not withstand use. The thickness of the yarn, on the other hand, should be chosen according to how you intend to use the socks. If you want to knit thicker, warm boot socks, choose a thicker yarn than you would for thin summer lace socks.

The yarn's twist also affects its durability. Tightly twisted yarn is more durable than loosely twisted yarn.
