49221 Egyptian DK

This has a softer twist than usual for our yarns. Its blend of alpaca and silk makes the yarn soft, and the linen adds a gentle texture with a light caramel colour. The yarn looks lovely in the skein. It takes the dye well, colours are slightly muted, and speckles spread. The resulting fabric is a light, summery blend which blocks out really nicely to be a drapey cool fabric. Sweaters made from this yarn are exquisite and classic in their look. This would also be nice for shawls and accessories.
