MERINOH! 8-PLY: Approximately 100g/218 yards superwash Merino wool. This is an 8-ply worsted weight yarn.
These were first space-dyed a mottled mix of black, brown, navy and green then speckled with yellow, orange, teal, brown and violet. Finally a small strip of intense cherry red was added. This yarn may stripe, flash or pool depending on the garment being knit. NOTE that while all the hanks share the same colours this is a HIGHLY VARIEGATED colourway and each is UNIQUE - they are very mottled and some are lighter/darker. All in all, very fun to knit! The photos are for different bases but reasonably portray the colourway.
This is a PLUMP, SOFT and very SMOOSHY base! The multiple plies make the strand quite round and provide a slightly pebbly look which transfers very nicely into the finished garment. It would be excellent for just about any knit or crocheted item and is next-to-skin soft. I envision it as a cozy hat or scrunchy cowl, baby sweater or big cardigan - you?
While this is superwash, I recommend hand washing and drying flat to maintain optimum colour and texture.
