Soft & Silky is a medium-weight yarn that is ideal for projects that require softness, warmth and drape, such as sweaters, cardigans and shawls. It is made from fine merino sheep’s wool and mulberry silk, making it very soft to the touch and giving it a silky sheen. The yarn is also superwash treated and therefore easy to care for.
These skeins are undyed and in their natural woolen white. The yarn was washed to remove any mill residue and to allow the yarn to bloom.

Merino Sheep's Wool
Wool is a natural protein fiber that is sheared from sheep of over 200 different breeds worldwide. It is naturally crimped with a lofty hand and has been used for its warmth for 10,000 years. Merino sheep, with their particularly fine and light-colored coat, were introduced to Australia in 1797, where the best Merinos are still bred today.
