We find it close to sock,so we would knit it quite comfortably with a size 3 needle.Mechita is great for babies garment,adult garments and accessories; especially shawls or scarves.Mix it with Sock for textural interest in your project. 100% merino wool, machine wash cold, lay flat to dry, 420 yards.
