This extra fine merino base with 10% cashmere feels incredibly soft and plump. It takes color beautifully and feels wonderfully soft next to skin. A little bit of added nylon provides strength, making it suitable for socks, luxurious shawls, garments and baby knits.

This yarn is scrumptious! It has a totally luxurious feel. I did go up a half needle size for my socks because it seems a touch fuller than some traditional sock yarns and I didn't want tight cables...it's cashmere after all! The socks are so lovely and incredibly warm. The cable definition was lovely. I really think this yarn is more than just a sock yarn and would make beautiful, never want to take off, garments! I have my eye on a cabled cardigan pattern! |
This yarn just couldn't be any softer. It has a beautiful soft halo that you can't help but want to touch and feel. What an absolutely luxurious pair of socks this makes! It would also be a wonderful option for a shawl! Oh how incredibly cozy that would be! Might have to be my next project! |
