This is a really delicate, singles lace yarn with a natural, grey colour from the yak fibre. It takes the dye well, colours appear rich and sophisticated on this yarn, and speckles will spread. The yarn knits into a cobweb-like fabric, which blocks out beautifully. This would be most suitable for very light lace shawls. This yarn could be used as a weft, but it is probably not strong enough to be used as a warp.
