Same great sock yarn only just a bit heavier--6 ply is sport weight.  Use a needle one size larger Due to the high percentage of virgin wool, Fortissima/Socka is particularly soft and very supple. You will notice the moment you start knitting. The sock yarn is also, of course, a machine wash product.  These hand-knitted socks will pamper you for a long time to come.
