Knomad Merino Wool Blend Fingering Yarn

Two skeins of Knomad's "Egret" — 100% fine organic merino wool, single ply, spun in Peru and finished as a natural undyed cream. Knomad (knomadyarn.com) sells this as a dyer-ready blank or as a soft, no-frills natural for plain knitting; either way it's a warm, slightly heathered, low-friction single ply that drapes the way unstrained organic merino does.

Specs.

• Per skein: 100 g / 437 yd / 400 m
• Fibre: 100% fine organic merino wool
• Construction: single ply
• Weight class: fingering / sock weight
• Colourway: Egret — undyed natural cream
• Origin: Made in Peru
• Care: hand-wash cool, lay flat to dry. If you dye it, pre-soak in synthrapol; this is a perfect dyer's base.

Lovely for: a fine-gauge cream shawl or wrap, a heritage-stitch stole, a dyer's blank for hand-painting, or held double for a sport-weight cabled hat. Single ply singles bloom slightly in the wash — the fabric softens, the stitch definition stays.

Condition. New with original Knomad band intact on each skein. Clean, fresh, full yardage.
