Yarn Notes Yarn Specs The Brand This is the yarn that finally tipped us over the stocking-Gepard edge - we had to have it, are delighted to stock all 17 colours!This lovely, airy, light soft yarn has so many of the qualities of an unspun yarn, but is just that little bit stronger, and so easier to work with - especially for anyone who has trouble with unspun, like Manchelopi, or for patterns where Manchelopi would just be a real ball-ache (pun...). My Soft One has only been slightly spun, then 2 plies have been slightly twisted together, to ensure the yarn is as close to an unspun yarn as possible.This has produced a soft, light yarn with about 50-60% more meterage per gram than other DK-Worsted yarn = a bargain AND lighter knits which are perfect all year round! It's delicious on its own, but wonderful held together with a thread of Silk Mo too. We adore the palette of edgy shades which work so well together, and stand up on their own too.
