KIDMO MERINOH! Singles: Approximately 100g/395yds, 56/44 superwash extrafine Merino wool/superkid mohair. This is fingering weight yarn; a fine, dense singles base.
These were kettle-dyed a tonal blush/ecru base then glazed with a wash of brown then grey. Finally, they were speckled with golden brown and purple. The purple dye breaks a bit so there are violet and hot pink specks here and there. Note that these hanks are variegated and each is different though they share the same colours. The pictures are of a different base but accurately depict the colourway.
This is a sweet merino/mohair base - very soft and pearly lustrous. It’s a heavy-ish fingering weight; knitting as if with a sport base allows it to bloom and creates a lighter fabric whereas used as a fingering base it’s soft, dense and very warm. The mohair content is obvious in this base and like all singles it may pill with wear. This would be divine in any winter accessory, shawl, cape, sweater - you name it! About the only thing I’d avoid is socks, due to its construction.
While this is superwash treated, I recommend hand washing and drying flat to maintain maximum gorgeousness.
