🍉 Minty Melon – Hand-Dyed Sock Yarn Set
A juicy splash of Watermelon, a refreshing twist of Mint and a whole lot of sock-knitting fun! 🍉💚
Meet Minty Melon, a fresh and playful addition to our Life in Loops hand-dyed sock yarn collection!
Featuring a gorgeous combination of Watermelon and Mint twisted together, this colourway brings together juicy pink tones and refreshing green for a beautifully vibrant, summery combination.
And because we love a coordinating mini, each set comes with a 20g Mint mini skein, perfect for creating contrasting heels, toes and cuffs that beautifully complement the main colourway.
Dyed on our beautiful 75% Australian Merino Wool / 25% Nylon sock yarn base, Minty Melon combines the natural softness of merino with the added strength and durability of nylon.
Soft, practical and machine washable, it's a wonderful choice for socks that are made to be worn and loved.

The coordinating Mint mini adds a beautiful finishing touch, whether you're creating contrasting heels and toes or adding a refreshing pop of green to another project.
🎨 Hand Dyed With Care
Every Life in Loops skein is hand dyed in small batches, making each one a little bit unique.
Our twisted colourways bring beautiful shades together, creating a striking combination as you work through your yarn.
As with all hand-dyed yarn, slight variations in colour and dye placement are part of the charm. Your skein may vary slightly from the product photographs.
If you're using multiple skeins in the same project, we recommend alternating skeins to help blend any natural colour variations.
🧺 Caring for Your Handmade Creations
Our merino and nylon sock yarn is machine washable. For best results, we recommend a gentle wool wash with a suitable wool detergent and drying flat to help preserve your beautiful handmade items.
Minty Melon – juicy Watermelon, refreshing Mint and a whole lot of handmade happiness! 🍉💚🧦
