This is a 4-ply fingering weight base that has approximately 460 yards per 100 grams. It is composed of 75% superwash merino wool and 25% nylon.

It is the thinnest of my fingering weight bases and is quite soft. This yarn also takes up the dye so well. Of all the bases, this shows the colors the brightest.

This is a great choice for socks due to the nylon content and the 4-ply construction.

Splendid is my middle of the road fingering weight yarn. It's thicker than Serendipity but thinner than Glee. This yarn is a 19.5 micron merino which means it is the softest of my fingering weight yarns. It's a delight to knit with. It also takes up the dye well, but the colors don't show quite as bright as Serendipity.

This is a great choice for socks due to the nylon content and the 4-ply construction.

UPDATE: As of 10/22/25 I am still unable to source this base.

This is a 3-ply fingering weight base that has approximately 400 yards per 100 grams. It is composed of 90% superwash targhee wool and 10% nylon.

Glee is my thickest fingering weight yarn. It leans more between a fingering weight and a sport weight yarn and is not as soft as the others. It's not next to skin scratchy but it does have some rustic characteristics to it. For my splendid and Serendipity weight bases I normally cast on 64 stitches. For Glee, I cast on 56 stitches using the same size 1 US needle. You may need to experiment with gauge on this base.

This is also a great choice for socks due to the targhee wool and a bit of nylon. This makes for some sturdy socks.

As of November 2025 I am moving back to my original DK base. It has the same make up as my custom DK, but it's much better for socks. If you have been with me for a long time, this was the base for DK that I started with.

This is a 4-ply DK weight base that has approximately 245 yards per 100 grams. It is composed of 75% superwash merino wool and 25% nylon.
