Pure luxury is how I would describe this yarn. With it being 50% silk, it has an amazing softness and sheen. It's a real treat to the hands while knitting. It creates a fabric with beautiful drape. Patterns with lace shine in this yarn. It would make the most wonderful shawl or capelet to wear with your warmer weather outfits while out on the town or on a date night. As usual, LITLG's colors are totally stunning. Whether you get a variegated or semi-solid, the color is always rich and complex and a total feast for the eyes. |
