Please be aware that at our end of the market, cones are not weighed with the precision of skein presentation. There will very probably be some variation from exact 2.2lb (1kg) weight of coned yarns. Cones are priced to take this into account.
This multi-ended yarn is a firm favorite. The construction creates a strong fabric with glorious texture. The yarn sucks up the dye, and colors appear bright and clear. Speckles are also really interesting, as they split over the multi ends and separate out even more — it’s a wonderful effect. Suitable for sweaters and accessories, the fabric has a nice drape. We knitted this on a #4, but a #3 needle would work well too.
