A beautiful, fine, soft and ethical wool hand dyed in Ireland

Available online and at our Gilford branch

Twist Sock is a sock yarn hand dyed in Ireland by the company Life in the Long Grass.

A company with an eco-responsible approach which is expressed both in the choice of wool (without muzzling, ethical production), and in management:

- local employment, recycled packaging, non-toxic dyes, and recycling of wastewater.

Life in the Long Grass is set in a century-old house in the middle of the countryside. Their palette is largely inspired by the surrounding nature.

Twist Sock is an ideal sock yarn:

- Its thread is well twisted which will ensure you have a durable sock.

- Its skein of 365 meters per 100 grams is enough for a pair of socks.

- Its wool and nylon composition will make your socks as soft as they are durable.
