The merino and yak blends that I use start out as a wonderful grey, which takes color well and offers a natural richness that brings warmth and depth to the colors. The yak is lightweight, while warm. The yarn is blended with either nylon or silk. The nylon is great for socks or as a substitute for other fine yarns. The silk in the other blends offers drape and a luxurious feel. Alpaca offers a lovely alternative to mohair for a fuzzy feel.
Woodsmoke has a high degree of variance - that's why the depicted yarns vary so much. If you'd prefer more varied or more solid, let me know and I'll do what I can to accomodate you.
DYED TO ORDER ONLY. This yarn is typically in the mail within 14 business days - yarn on hand is in the mail much faster.
