When we first saw this yarn it took our breath away! Gossamer-light yet warm and strong it is hard to believe anyone could spin such a fine thread by hand. Handspun in the traditional way by hill farmers in the mountainous regions of the Ukraine, this yarn has a magical quality. Suggested needle sizes: 1.75mm – 3mm Uses: Ideally suited to the finest shawls and lacework. Approximate length: 500 metres Please note this yarn is handspun so each skein will vary slightly. Also as the yarn is hand spun in a traditional way it is likely that you will find some extraneous vegetable matter spun into your yarn. Any such bits will either fall out when you are knitting or can be gently removed by hand. Price: £8.90 per 50g skein [item code HD202] To order online please click the Add to Basket button |
