Opal Showbiz 4-ply yarn is very durable and made from 75% virgin wool (superwash) and 25% polyamide. With the Showbiz collection, Opal puts various performing arts in the spotlight. In the eight colourways, plain stripes alternate with mixed stripes in different colours. This yarn is ideal for knitting warm socks with a unique colored pattern, but it can of course also be used for sweaters, hats, mittens and scarves. Each ball is enough for one pair of socks (up to size 44). This mixed 4-ply yarn is washable up to 40°C . Recommended needle size is 2.00-2.50mm. One ball of yarn weighs 100 grams and holds 425 metres of yarn.
