Hand-dyed yarn, single spun 15% yak / 20% silk / 65% superwash merino

Colourway: Walking the Rainforest

4ply, generous 120g skeins/approx 480m

Needles 3-4 mm

Gorgeous single-spun yarn! The yak fibre is clearly visible, giving it a slightly heathered look. It's very soft and drapes beautifully, so very suitable for shawls. It can of course also be used for scarves, hats, baby clothes, or other 4ply knitting. If you would like to use these luxurious fibres for a garment, I recommend using Mardi instead, which is a plied version.

Gentle handle wash. Due to this yarn being single-spun, please handle it gently so that it doesn't felt.

This yarn is hand-dyed, colour variations are intentional.
After dyeing, the yarn has been thoroughly washed and rinsed.

The utmost has been done to reproduce the colour accurately, but please keep in mind that colours vary on different screens.
