A wool like Sirdar crofter chunky?

Hi I've used Sirdar crofter chunky to make a few pairs of socks and I love the feel of the yarn, but it is self patterning and making matching socks is now hurting my head. I

Is there any other yarn with the same blend (25% Cotton, 15% Wool & 60% Acrylic) or one that feels similar but is all one colour? The other yarns I've tried just don't feel the same once they're knitted up and I can't find any with the same composition.

Any help is much appreciated.

What about Sirdar Denim Ultra. Don't think it comes in many colours but is mostly plain or flecked I think.

Sorry, just realised the Denim Ultra is super chunky so its probably too thick.

Thank you for replying. Yes I think it will be too thick.

Have you considered Sirdar Click? Not got cotton, I know, but it has similar smoothness I think.

Another option is to go onto one of the yarn websites and put in your spec and see what comes up. I use Deramores for these searches, though find they aren't necessarily cheapest for buying.
