Plain Yarn in a light worsted gauge. A stunning, springy 100% Romney organically managed on a small Amish farm in Lancaster County.
Rare and fine.

Skein weights & yardage for this yarn are somewhat variable and average weight is 90-105 grams and yardage is 190-200 yards.

NOTE: We have knit this yarn at gauges of 4-6 st/1” and used needles between US 4-8 for varying results. Blocking transforms this rustic yarn into a soft, springy fabric.
