The colour story: In the event a fresh chestnut, still warm from being roasted in a recycled oil drum and handed over in a newspaper cone, is not available a candied one is a very fine alternative. Reminiscent of the southern French delicacy, this colourway has hints of chestnut brown, plum-brown, gold and mauve on a creamy base to give a subtle and soft tone. As with all hand-made things, there is always some variation between skeins even within dyelots. If you plan to make a larger project, blend your skeins through transition rows. The yarn story: Cloud Lace is a soft and bouncy 2 ply yarn made of 80% superwash merino wool and 20% bamboo. This yarn will bring soft loft and squish to your lace projects or can be held double with other fine yarns for a lofty finished object. Approximately 100g Meterage approximately 800 meters
