~~~~~~~~~~♦♦♦♦♦~~~~~~~~~~

This richly colored skein is a result of over-dyeing a gray Merino and silk blend in shades of blue, purple and magenta. The depth of shade you get when over-dyeing a colored fiber is incredible; it adds such a rich texture-like quality to the yarn that is unbelievably beautiful. Trust me, this is a fiber blend that will have you enjoying every last inch. There is enough yardage here to knit a cuddly cowl or hat, or you could use it as a weft yarn on your loom. The possibilities are endless. Makes a special gift for the knitter in your life, too, though you might have a hard time parting with it ;)

Merino sheep are hardy and thrive in environments which are much too harsh for other domesticated sheep breeds. Merino is a breed of sheep famous for its fine, soft wool, and is the standard to which all other fibers are compared.

This listing is for ONE skein of worsted weight handspun, as shown.

Blend contains:
70% Gray Merino
30% Tussah silk

212 yds
3.9 oz
9-11 wpi
870 YPP

This yarn was spun on my Lendrum ST in a smoke free, pet friendly environment.

This yarn will felt, so if that's not your intention, be sure to handwash your finished garment gently in cool water and lay flat to dry.

If you would like it in a center pull ball, please let me know during checkout.

After you have added an item to your cart, and before you check out, on the right hand side underneath the payment options, you will see a blue link that states "apply shop coupon code". Click this and a box will pop up where you can type in the code. Click "apply code", just below the box, and your discount will be shown. Then simply check out as usual.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have a coupon code, it MUST be entered during checkout. Please note that I cannot honor coupon codes after the transaction has been made (this includes coupon codes that are entered into the "notes" section of the transaction). Coupon codes are not valid towards the purchase of gift certificates or custom orders.

For yarn weights, I use the defaults set by the Yarn Craft Council of America.

All my yarns use these categories and standards (keeping in mind that within each category there is a variety, for example, a yarn at 850 YPP is a Bulky weight (albeit on the lighter side), as Worsted weight yarns don't start until you reach 851 YPP. Please check each listing's yarn information to determine if it will be suitable for your needs. :)
