MERINOH! 8-PLY: Approximately 100g/218 yards superwash Merino wool. This is an 8-ply worsted weight yarn.
These were kettle-dyed a tonal neutral grey and speckled liberally with hot pink, magenta, fuchsia, pink, gold and yellow. The hanks were twisted prior to speckling so coverage is more consistent but it is still a highly variegated colourway and each hank is slightly different. Please alternate hanks if using more than one. Different bases are pictured to illustrate 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.
