This shiny, luxury lace yarn is super smooth and soft. It sucks up the dye and creates strong, bright colours. Speckles can be achieved, and glazing and layering techniques both work well on this base. The yarn knits and blocks out really well, and lace patterns are crisp on this fabric. Perfect for lace shawls and light, layering garments, this yarn would also make a stunning woven fabric. Please see our notes on dyeing silk.
