Luxuriously soft and shimmery silk that is delicately woven before being plunged into rich dye baths. The result of this alchemical process is pure elegance. When the yarn is steamed after knitting with it, it relaxes and softens.
As witth all hand-dyed yarn, it is best to use 2 skeins at once (alternating every few rows) to have any dyeing variations blend into each other.
