MERYLON 75/25 DK: Approximately 100g/248 yards 75/25 superwash Merino wool/nylon. This is a 4-ply DK weight yarn.
These were kettle-dyed a mottled tonal pale golden/peach and speckled with gold, teal, violet, pink and yellow. There is a fair amount of bleed-through, especially from the green and violet. The hanks are not twisted prior to speckling so coverage is more random. This is a variegated colourway and though the hanks all share the same colours, each is unique.
This is a great all-purpose DK weight merino and nylon blend; a plumped-up version of the Merylon 75/25 sock base. It is soft, lofty and smooshy with a nice twist, generous yardage, and with the nylon, will be durable. This would be perfect for winter accessories, bulky socks, sweaters, baby wear or a large shawl or cape.
While this is superwash, I recommend hand washing and drying flat to maintain optimum colour and texture.
