The texture of this yarn is extra fine lace weight. Good for knitting pattern and projects that call for lace/cobweb/thread weight. Great for knitting and crochet projects.
This yarn is also good for working with multiple strands to achieve the specific yarn weight that you are looking for (heavy lace, fingering etc.). I provide free winding services to wind multiple strands together with no extra charge. Convo me if you have a specific project in mind and I can help you to calculate how much yarn you will need.
