60/20/20 Merino/Silk/Yak Legend, a 4ply (fingering weight) yarn is an outstanding blend of some of the best fibres in the world. Merino lends its softness and bounce, yak adds warmth, depth of colour, and is as soft as cashmere, silk provides strength, sheen and drape. This swoon worthy yarn is ideal for any special project, even a wonderful pair of socks! Alternate skeins for best results. Please note, when these yarns are hand-dyed, the same formula is used each time but skeins may vary one from the other even within the same dye lot. To ensure random colour distribution, we encourage you to work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating on every row in circular knitting and every other row in flat knitting. This blending creates a gorgeous fabric with depth and nuance. The differences from one dye lot to another can be very subtle, or extremely noticeable, especially on variegated yarns.
