How the yarn behaves

Refined hand-dyed Araucania base — softer and more drapey than the standard merino lines, often with silk or alpaca added for extra shine and flow. Saturated tonal colourways, characteristic skein-to-skein variation. Strong fit for special-occasion shawls, lightweight summer garments and decorative accessories. Hand wash cool, dry flat, alternate skeins.
