Floating is our very softest yarn made of alpaca, silk, cashmere. With each stitch, you feel as if you are floating on a cloud. With a generous 437 yards per skein, you can surely use it to create a single skein scarf or shawl. Or treat yourself, select multiple skeins and create your dream accessory or garment. Floating is stunning when combined with Frond, our mohair silk yarn. All colors are created using natural materials such as roots, bark, leaves and dyed in our Oakland, California studio. Our palette is inspired by our local Northern California flora and fauna such as the Pacific Ocean, redwoods, and golden grasses. Floating comes in two natural undyed base colors: Lighthouse, a clean white, and Quartz, a light silver made with naturally grey fiber. Colorways with (Q) in their name are dyed on Quartz, and will have a subtly muted undertone. ~~~ One skein shawl patterns: Ieri by Mara LicoleEiregal Shawl by Romi Hill Tresna by Ysolda Teague One skein cowl patterns:Poza by Ysolda TeagueFlora Cowl by Carrie Bostick Hoge Dive deeper, and indulge in a multiple skein project!
