Lush, brilliant colors inspired by the night sky and a sheen that shimmers like the stars! Galileo is our new sport weight yarn that combines the lush softness of Merino wool with the brilliant luster and strength of bamboo. This exquisite blend of luxurious fibers produces a yarn with wonderful elasticity and bounce while the bamboo adds lovely drape and a silky soft hand – a perfect fiber combination for those with sensitive skin as well as special baby projects. Also excellent for cables and textured stitches, Galileo’s fantastic sheen reflects light beautifully to display crisp stitches and sophisticated details. Whether you indulge your creativity with lightweight cardigans, elegant tops, or stunning wraps, you’ll love exploring all of Galileo’s alluring possibilities!
