Product Description:

Handspun yarn, merino, silk, natural dyed, deep rose pink by SpinningStreak I spun this one from merino tops that I had hand dyed with brazil wood chips. I then plied it with my handspun bombyx silk, which had been through the same dye bath. The resulting yarn is light and bouncy - very soft and a delicious deep rose pink colour. There is enough here to make some simple fingerless gloves, a unique hat if you added a toning yarn for the welt, or it would be perfect to use as an accent yarn in any other project - maybe a cushion etc - or to create flowers as embellishments. This listing consists of 1 skein 84 yards and approx. 34g See pic. against 1 inch ruler for accurate idea of gauge.
