2.5 ounces/75 grams
20 yards/18.25 meters
5 w.p.i. (super bulky weight)
Rough gauge: 2 - 2.5 stitches/inch on size 11 - 13 knitting needles (US), but you may prefer larger needles for a looser look.
All items in my shop are created in a *smoke-free, pet-free environment*.
I would be happy to wind this skein into a center-pull ball/yarn cake at your request.
Ragamuffin™ style yarns are the result of experiments I have been doing with the new quillhead on my Lendrum spinning wheel. I use premium quilting fabrics, tear them into strips, and spin them into lovely rag yarn. The newly spun yarn is wound off onto a niddy-noddy and secured with lease ties into a skein; the twist is set, and the yarn is weighed and measured. Very labor intensive, but very satisfying.
Ragamuffin yarn can be used in knitting, crochet, weaving--any craft you choose. The skeins look great in a primitive wooden bowl, displayed like vintage rag balls.
I ship USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation, so your Ragamuffin™ Handspun Cotton Rag Yarn skein will arrive uncrushed and looking spectacular. Items shipped to California require 8.75% sales tax.
