Sisu is a soft, durable utility yarn reinforced with nylon. This makes it ideal for socks, but because it is so soft it has become a favorite for utility wear, layered under snowsuits and jackets. It has also been a favorite for knitting kofte sweaters since the early 1980s, because the structure of the yarn brings out the pattern of these traditional knitted jackets. Garments knitted with Sisu have a long lifespan and can remain just as beautiful for several generations.
The yarn is superwash treated to withstand frequent machine washing.
For machine washing, we recommend that all wool garments be washed separately on a wool program, to ensure the gentlest treatment. Centrifuge well and dry the garment flat, preferably on top of a towel. Never use a laundry bag when washing hand-knitted wool garments. This creates friction that can cause the garment to felt.

Let customers speak for us
from 699 reviewsGreat yarn and excellent service. I especially liked that she was able to wind them for me, saving me lots of time so I could get creating right away.
Was at a wonderful knitting retreat put on by this shop and a few of that ladies were using this swivel cord on their needles…..of course I had to try it, so clever and useful……I promptly bought it. Thanks
Adorable, easy to locate when tossed in my bag, and they work really well
My daughter was really excited to receive this. She is going to spread out the 12 days into 24 by opening one every other day!
Just finished my table runner, used it for my warping in three lovely colors. Welf was a snobby cream, very pleased.
Beautiful color combination and the feeling of the yarn while knitting with it!

Absolutely love this product! Estelle Chunky is an amazing new addition to the shop. I'll definitely be getting more to make everyone socks for christmas!
Making two by two hat using a twisted rib and this yarn is nice to work with, my stitch definition is high and even. I am using chocolate brown tweed and it looks great.

I was very excited to cast on for socks. The colorway of the yarn is STUNNING and I can’t wait to finish this pair of socks.
It’s going to knit up beautifully into a pair of toe up socks!!
