A softly spun Merino wool and silk heavy 4 ply with 365 metres/399 yards per 100 grams. Silk creates a beautiful sheen and merino wool lends the yarn a heavenly softness. With a rich display of colours this yarn is luxury in a skein and a treat to knit. This yarn is made with super wash merino making it suitable to wash in the machine at 30 degrees.
Due to the soft twist and high silk content of this yarn we recommend using a 2.5 mm - 3.25mm needle size, sizes above this can increase the chances of the yarn pilling.
