This delicate plied yarn gets its natural grey colour from the yak. The yarn takes the dye really well, and colours appear sophisticated and rich on this base. The yarn knits into a pleasingly light and airy fabric that is perfect for shawls. It would also make lovely layering garments or a beautiful woven fabric.
