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 the exact weight of coned yarns. Cones are priced to take this into account.
A lovely, soft, woolly yarn with a little silk for shine and luxury. This yarn is warm and velvety. It takes the dye well, but colors appear a bit more muted than on a superwash yarn. Speckles spread softly. This yarn has great yardage and a delightful, bouncy twist. It would make fabulous sweaters, hats and other accessories. Argentina was originally listed as a DK weight yarn, but we have reclassified it as a sport weight due to its yardage and gauge.
