Comfortable and Durable
Schachenmayr Regia sock yarn is both comfortable and durable, although not as soft as some other brands such as Paton's or Madelinetosh. They offer a pleasing variety of self-striping patterns and their jacquards are especially unique.
Love, love this self-patterning yarn!
I recently discovered knitting superstars Arne + Carlos, and was delighted to find that they have worked with Schachenmayr to create their own line of self-patterning wool sock yarn, which is called Regia. It is available in a range of colour schemes. I bought a lovely purple/turquoise/blue blend. It's so fun to work with, and you never get bored, as the patterns keep changing in the yarn every few rows. The socks I made have not been worn yet (they are a gift) but this is a 4-ply 75% wool/25% polyamide blend which should wear very well. I will definitely be buying this yarn again in other colour schemes.
