Fibre blend. Maizy's corn fibre gives a soft feel and wicks moisture. It is sourced from USA corn. The elastic nylon retains the shape and makes it wear well for socks. Hand-knit socks will feel soft and comfortable knit with Maizy.
Yarn construction. The yarn plies are quite loosely twisted to incorporate the elastic nylon. The resulting yarn is soft but also strong.
Maize colours. The Indian Corn colourway is a perfect match for this maize fibre yarn. It has a mix of oranges, mustardy yellow and dark reddish brown, just like a ripe ear of indian corn. View all colourways of Maizy
