Best of Opal 4-Ply Sock Yarn

Opal Meisterwerke - Best of Opal brings together the most beloved and iconic self-striping colourways from Opal's collection. These are timeless favourites, reimagined as a curated "best-of" selection. This limited-edition lineup features eight striking designs. Discover playful pops like Lollipop and evocative ones like Musica or Romantic Journey. Each colourway is engineered to reveal bold stripes, rhythmic patterns, or artistic flows as you knit plain rounds.

Opal yarns turn simple projects into something special, with no charts or colour changes required. The patterns emerge row by row. Every day, socks, shawls, or accessories become wearable art with signature Opal precision and German craftsmanship. Celebrate what makes Opal enduringly popular: quality that lasts and colours that delight.

One 100g ball typically makes a pair of adult socks; larger sizes may need more. Use for socks, shawls, sweaters, gloves, or any project with dynamic colour flow.
