This is probably our most luxurious lace yarn. It combines cashmere softness with a glorious shine. The yarn takes the dye well, but colours can appear slightly less bright than on other yarns. Speckles tend to spread softly. To ensure even dye uptake, see notes on dyeing silk. The resulting knitted fabric is gorgeously soft and shiny. It blocks well and holds its shape. This yarn makes fabulous shawls or luxury, lightweight garments. Please see our notes on dyeing silk.
