With Proper Sock, Cowgirl Blues finally releases a real sock yarn with the typical composition and superwash finish for easy care - all of them in the typical hand-dyed Cowgirl Blues colors.
It is perfect for both accessories and full size garments. The yarn is sourced in South Africa and dyed under fair conditions by women in rural areas.

This yarn is produced in South Africa with locally produced wool from the Karoo. All wools are hand dyed and the dyes used are azo-free and comply with European safety and environmental standards.

The sheep and goats farmed for the wool are free range and mulesing is not practised. This source of wool is renewable, and Cowgirlblues has the capacity to collect 25,000l of rainwater from their factory roof to use in the dying process- this water is reused and recycled wherever possible.

Cowgirlblues are currently exploring natural dyes, however, it is acknowledged that such dyes are derived from plants that could otherwise be used for food sources in the area. For this reason, they are also looking into the use of microbial dyes, however, this is still in the experimental stages.
