ABOUT THE YARN

This extrafine merino wool (19.5 microns) is almost as soft as cashmere and is a joy to use and wear.

Deliciously bulky, one hank will make a fast hat, cowl or pair of fingerless gloves.

Dyed by us in our home state of Washington using professional commercial dyes that won’t fade or bleed.
