This machine washable, 75% wool/25% nylon yarn knits at a worsted gauge of 4-5 sts/inch on US 7 - 8.
So it's great for socks for hiking or hunting boots, as well as for baby sweaters! Chris knit this vest (free Ravelry pattern) using just 1 ball. I have shown some of the colors with their swatches so you can get an idea of how some of the colors would knit up in a baby sweater!
Colors 1 and 10 have been popular for hunting socks!
For another option for a yarn that self stripes that is heavier than traditional sock weight like this yarn, but that is 100% wool (and also machine washable) check out Knit-Col.
It's very soft and each ball packs a whopping 246 yds!
$21.99/ball
