I knit socks constantly and buy sock yarn at Hobby Lobby.I have never found the sock yarn to be itchy and it is soft.

Bernat Sox.

Thanks, I don't have a Hobby Lobby nearby but will check Michaels for Bernat.

I found the Bernat Sock Yarn in Michaels, it's very soft and would be great for socks or knee-warmers. I decided not to make pairs of socks, just to make knitted Christmas stockings, and bought some variegated multi-color rainbow Red Heart worsted yarn instead. I'll fill them with chocolates and tie with a pretty ribbon. That will be nice-homemade and edible.

But I've decided the Bernat sock yarn would make some wonderful leg warmers for my daughters.
