This fine fingering weight yarn has the same unusual fiber blend as our Marine Silk Lace and makes for a lusciously soft yarn with a lovely drape and feel. The silk and sea cell bring a magnificent luster and the soft merino binds it together.

It is a bit delicate and a treat to work with and wear. In a light fingering weight, this is a luxurious yarn especially good for cowls and shawls. Featured in our following patterns: Leafy Caplet and Fidalgo Evenings Shawl.
