NEW! Beautiful new 2 ply aran / worsted version of the ever popular single ply merino linen yarn. A soft 2 ply merino and linen blend yarn with texture and a gentle tweedy haze. Nylon free.
90% Superwash Merino wool (21.5 micron) 10% Linen Yarn,
100g skein / 200 yds
The natural linen gives the yarn a textured finish with subtle drape. When dyed with acid dyes, the linen resists the dye and remains white, producing a halo of linen fibers.
It is ideal for trans-seasonal items such as cowls, shawls and lightweight tops.
Recommended Needle Size: 4.5 - 5.5mm (US 7 - 9) needles
Gauge (stocking stitch): 18sts x 24 rows over 10cm (4 inches)
on 5mm (US 8) needles
Dye it yourself or use as is-it'll be beautiful either way! This yarn would look wonderful either knitted or crocheted, and since it is superwash, it is totally machine washable.
