One of our longest standing and most luxurious yarns, this is a keeper. It has a super soft kitten feel to it and is a joy to wear next to the skin, so works really nicely for accessories and garments. The yarn takes the dye well and colours merge softly into each other when dyed, speckles spread softly.
The fabric has a wonderful drape. This yarn is also available as a natural grey base type 49166. If this is kettle dyed, be sure to keep the yarn away from a rolling boil as it might felt at the bottom where there is most heat and movement.
