This yarn is pure luxury. It is a fingering one and is well spun from two threads. Merino and cashmere give the yarn an extraordinary softness. The yarn glides smoothly over the needles. The nylon content gives the yarn a certain stability and protection against pills and lint. I recommend this beautiful wool for shawls and light tops or sweaters. The Merino part has a superwash finish, but the cashmere part does not. Therefore I recommend hand washing so that you can enjoy your special knitwear for a long time.
