100% Wool - Merino
Care: Superwash

This is a lovely yarn which consists of 2 strands of ordinary merino wool plied with a strand of superwash treated merino. The superwash strand takes the dyes more intensely and the result is a yarn that gives a tweedy effect when knitted up. It is a soft yarn with a fairly loose twist.

It is available in variegated and self-striping forms from my Folksy shop and also my Etsy shop.

Custom dyes are also available.

NB: Next self-striping update will be 4th Sept in my Etsy shop.
