Zauberball

Schoppel-Wolle Zauberball – Gradient Sock Yarn for Knitting and Accessories

Schoppel-Wolle Zauberball – affectionately known as the “magic ball” – is a high-quality gradient-dyed sock yarn designed to bring beautiful, softly transitioning colour gradients to your knitting projects. This German sock yarn combines warm new wool with durable polyamide (nylon), making it both comfortable to wear and highly resistant to wear and tear.

A versatile yarn for socks and shawls
Zauberball’s signature feature is its long, harmonious colour stripes. In socks, the colour changes create striking, elongated stripes, while in shawls and other accessories, the colours shift differently depending on the stitch pattern – from narrow stripes to bold colour blocks – producing a beautifully textured and vibrant fabric. The gradient dyeing ensures that every project you make is completely unique.

Quality and comfort
Spun as a single-ply yarn with a firm twist, Zauberball is a pleasure to knit and produces an even, smooth stitch definition. The machine-washable wool allows for easy care and long-lasting use.
