“The extrafine merino wool makes this yarn luxuriously soft and bouncy for next to skin comfort. The wool has a wonderful sheen and drape and can be used to create a variety of items from socks, shawls, baby garments, hats and gloves. Skeins are hand dyed in small batches so some small differences may occur between them.  If using multiple skeins in your project, you should alternate between skeins every couple of rows for a more consistent look. It is recommended that you hand wash your item and lay flat to dry.” - description from the dyer Paula.
