This yarn is the ultimate in luxury. Often dyers are put off by the dark base of this yarn, however the dyes can look absolutely wonderful on it. We recommend semisolids or hand paints for this one, speckles will not show up. Thanks to Coastal Colours for letting us use their lovely dyed yarn to show you how well it works!! The resulting fabric is exquisite, it has a soft drape and a gentle halo from the Yak.
