Description

Merino – Fade to Purple.  This wool is one of the finest and softest wools in the world.  It is perfect for next to the skin wear, like shawls and baby garments  Finished as a single ply yarn it has a soft and delicate texture.
This fibre was professionally dyed and block colours were spun together to form a gradulating colour scheme. This technique of spinning is best suited to create garments such as shawls to show the colour graduation to its best advantage.

The fibre has been left on the bobbin for at least a week before being wound into a skein.   This allows the twist to settle and remove any trapped energy in the twist. It has then been washed and ‘thwacked’ to remove any further energised twists that may still be in the yarn.
The yarn thickness is in the 1” notch of the wooden gauge.

Wool ply – Fingering
Recommended needle size – 2-4mm
