This two-ply DK-weight yarn, made from pure Superwash Merino wool, randomly blends multicolored tones throughout the strand. Its appearance evokes the charm of handspun yarn, offering our signature colorways in a more structured construction. The result is the softness you already know, paired with a vibrant and dynamic visual effect. The word torzal refers to “a twisting together of several strands or elements, turned and folded into one another like a thread”. A fitting name for a yarn that brings together multiple colors into a vibrant, richly textured strand.
