LANG Sock Yarns
From everyday socks to cosy comforts
Sock knitting has a rhythm all of its own. Portable, satisfying, and endlessly rewarding, it’s one of the most loved forms of knitting — and LANG YARNS has been leading the way in sock yarn innovation for decades.
What makes LANG sock yarns so special is their depth and breadth. This isn’t a one-style-fits-all approach. Instead, LANG offers a carefully curated family of sock yarns designed to suit different feet, climates, styles, and knitting moods — from classic workhorse yarns to expressive colour stories and beautifully soft blends.
A sock yarn for every knitter
LANG sock yarns span a generous range of weights, from traditional fingering / 4-ply right through to cosy 8-ply, making them suitable not just for socks, but also for mittens, hats, children’s knits, and lightweight garments.
Within that spectrum, each range has its own character.
Super Soxx is the dependable classic — hard-wearing, reliable, and perfect for everyday socks that are made to be worn and washed again and again.
Twin Soxx takes the thinking out of matching pairs, with self-striping colour repeats designed so two identical socks knit effortlessly from one ball.
Mille Colori brings painterly colour and movement, creating socks that feel expressive and individual with every stitch.
Jawoll is a long-standing favourite, valued for its strength, classic feel, and reinforcement spool that supports long-lasting heels and toes.
Alpaca Soxx adds warmth and softness, ideal for colder months and cosy socks that feel indulgent without sacrificing structure.
Beyond LANG — WOOLADDICTS sock yarns
Sock knitting doesn’t stop with LANG alone. Their sister brand WOOLADDICTS brings a more contemporary, design-led edge to sock yarns:
Footprints offers bold patterning and playful colour, turning simple sock knitting into something eye-catching and joyful.
Move is modern, confident, and expressive — a sock yarn that feels just as at home in trainers as it does curled up on the sofa. It’s ideal for knitters who like their socks to make a statement while still delivering comfort and durability.
Designed to be worn
All LANG and WOOLADDICTS sock yarns are engineered with wearability in mind. Balanced fibre blends, carefully considered twist, and colour systems that work in stitch ensure socks hold their shape, feel comfortable on the foot, and age gracefully with use.
Whether you’re knitting for yourself, gifting, or building a drawer full of handmade socks, these yarns are designed to support real life — walking, washing, and wearing.
