Meet Opal Bouquet Mouliné 4-ply — a joyful, colourful collection inspired by flowers, gardens, sunshine and fresh air. Each 100g ball blends two or more strands of colour to create a beautiful mouliné effect: soft twists, gentle marls and effortless patterning that looks gorgeous straight off the needles.
Whether you’re knitting socks, shawls, mitts or cosy accessories this yarn practically does the work for you. The colours dance, the marling shifts organically, and every pair of socks becomes a little botanical surprise.

The Zwerger family formula is simple. Be the best at what they make, employ local families and train them to be the best. Putting sustainable production always as their highest priority. Supporting sheep farmers, ensuring all of the wool is ethically sourced and then adding colour, design and joy into every ball.
Back in the day the Zwerger family invented the process for mass producing self-striping wool. Today they are the leaders in global sock wool. Put both together, and yarns depicting the great painters of Europe like Hundertwasser, Van Gogh and others, self-stipe to make a masterpieces on your feet.
Why not sponsor a sheep that your Opal socks could come from with their Schafpate project?
Based in Baden-Württemberg, Made in Germany, hand-knitted by you.
