A slightly thinner version of type 49150, this yarn is light and smooth, with a gorgeous silky handle. The natural camel base sets the scene for warm, delicate colours on top. It takes the dye really well and speckles spread on this yarn. The resulting knitted fabric is super neat with a gentle shine which makes gorgeous, luxury shawls and cardigans. We love it for cool summer garments. Please see our notes on dyeing silk.
