Grannies Cable Knit Wool Tights - Bone China

Our cable knit wool tights are a wool-rich blend, over half wool, with polyamide, elastane and a touch of cotton to help with stretch and comfort. That mix gives you the warmth and softness of wool without it feeling stiff or scratchy. The exact percentages can vary a little by colour, so it's worth checking the individual product page if you want the precise breakdown.

No, our cable knit wool tights are designed to be soft against your skin, not scratchy like a jumper you can't wait to take off. The wool is blended with polyamide and elastane specifically so you get the warmth of wool without the itch people usually associate with it. If you've avoided wool tights before because of that, these are worth a try.

Wool tights are one of the warmest options you can wear, warmer than even our thickest denier tights. Wool fibres trap heat naturally, so they're brilliant for proper cold snaps when 80 denier alone isn't quite enough. Pair them with boots and a coat and they'll keep you comfortable on the coldest days of the year.

Wash your cable knit wool tights by hand, or pop them in a lingerie bag if you're using a machine, and wash them separately the first time in case of any dye transfer. Once washed, squeeze out the excess water rather than wringing, and let them dry flat instead of using the tumble dryer. Wool needs a gentler routine than regular tights, but it's a small trade off for how warm and soft they are.

These come in size bands rather than one size for every UK size, so check the size chart against your height and usual clothing size before you order. Go with what the chart says rather than guessing from your normal Snag size, since the fit works differently to the rest of the range. Getting it right first time means the cable knit pattern sits properly instead of pulling out of shape.
