A single 100 g skein of SKEIN's Frog and Toad Sock base in *Rhubarb Jam* — a deep raspberry-magenta tonal on a smooth 4-ply 100% superwash merino sock yarn. Kristen Finlay's signature tonal-on-saturated-ground hand-dye work, with the original SKEIN band intact.

This listing is for 1 skein of Skein Frog and Toad Sock in color Rhubarb Jam.

About the yarn:

SKEIN's Frog and Toad Sock is the studio's everyday 100% superwash merino sock base — 420 yd / 384 m in a 100 g skein, plied as a smooth round 4-ply that takes hard wear in actual socks and holds the speckle-on-tonal palette SKEIN works in. Gauge sits at 7–9 sts/inch on US 1–3 (2.25–3.25 mm). *Rhubarb Jam* is a saturated red-magenta tonal — a deep raspberry/stewed-rhubarb ground with a quiet gold undertone showing through in the lighter stretches. Hand wash cold to keep the saturation; the base itself is rated for the machine wool cycle if you push it.

About Skein Frog and Toad Sock:

SKEIN (skeinyarn.com) is Kristen Finlay's small Australian indie dye studio in New South Wales — small kettle batches, a focused lineup of merino, MCN, and BFL fingering bases, and a palette that leans into botanicals, fruit, and weathered pigments rather than saturated speckle work. Frog and Toad Sock is the studio's everyday 100% superwash merino sock base, the workhorse Kristen reaches for when the colourway needs a clean round 4-ply ground rather than the plusher Slinky MCN. *Rhubarb Jam* is one of the studio's saturated fruit-named tonals. This skein is in original-twist condition with the SKEIN band still on.
