Novita 7 Veljestä Original has been created to celebrate one of the best-loved sock yarns of all time. For decades, Novita 7 Veljestä has been hugely popular among knitters around the world, and deservedly so. Its popularity is due to the yarn's carefully crafted composition and twist, which makes it suitable for a wide range of projects. 7 Veljestä Original has the same composition as the yarn it pays tribute to, blending 75% warm and cozy wool with 25% polyamide for enhanced durability. A single 150 g skein is enough to make a pair of woolly socks for men. The colourways take their inspiration from the most popular 7 Veljestä hues. 7 Veljestä Original is a versatile all-rounder that’s perfect for a variety of projects, especially woolly socks. The recommended needle size is 4 mm (6 US), or 3.5 mm (4 US) for socks. A 150 g ball has 300 metres of yarn. The products are machine washable at 40 degrees. The gauge for this yarn is 18 stitches and 26 rows over 10x10 cm (4x4 in). Novita 7 Veljestä is a Key Flag product.
