| Some yarns can be soft but then they are "limp" but Rowan has created a wool yarn that is both soft and substantial having a beautiful drape and subtle self-striping. The lovely sheen must come from the soybean content. It is a blend of 70%wool and 30%soybean protein fibre. (How do they do all this?) With a gauge of 22 sts/4in, size 6 needles, this DK wt yarn is just right for sweaters, shawls and any number of projects. 131 yards/50g ball. Handwash this yarn. Excellent for felting. |
