This beautiful Art yarn contains light fluffy clouds of corespun fiber spiral-plied and autowrapped with sparkly thread. I carded the batt on my Fancy Kitty drum carder and then stripped it into several lengths and spun at random. Fibers include some commercially dyed and some hand dyed in shades of brown, orange, magenta, turquoise and ecru. The resulting yarn has great texture and will be a colorful and unique addition to your weaving projects. Great as a scarf, as a complimentary yarn in a larger project, or if you prefer knitting, you could work up a lovely one-of-a-kind hat, a plush cowl or a neckwarmer. Makes a great gift too!

Merino is the standard by which the fineness of wool is graded and is among the softest fleeces in the world. Being small bodied, it is grown mostly for its exquisite wool. The staple is crimpy and shorter than some other popular breeds, but makes up for that in its legendary softness.

This listing is for one skein of Art yarn as shown.
