Gorgeous natural cream/ecru mohair merino wool undyed yarn. This is a 3 ply, smooth, classic yarn in a worsted weight that
blends mohair and wool into a firm yarn with surprising sheen. The mohair is not brushed, so the surface of the yarn is smooth rather than fuzzy. The mohair provides luster while the wool contributes resilience. This would work well in a classic gansey, where the stitch patterns would stand out due to the smooth, firm surface. It would also make a great warm blanket, mittens, gloves, or hats.
Can be easily dyed using Acid Dyes; it slurps up dye and the resulting colors practically glow! A classic!
