Fingering yarns are some times referred to as baby weight yarns. They knit at 7-8 sts per inch usually on US 2-3 needles. Most sock yarns are cotton or super wash wool with a little nylon. The nylon adds strength to the heels and toes for extra wear. Some sock patterns call for heavier weight yarns to which a reinforcement thread can be added. This section also includes several lace weight yarns.
