Light, fluffy & luxurious, this worsted weight yarn is an airy blend of organic cotton & Merino wool. Combining the best of both worlds, the yarn is warm & cozy, yet breathable. The Shadows collection consists of a brightly colored, chainette tube with fluffy black wool fibers blown into it, giving the yarn a cool, high contrast effect. The yarn is gorgeous for sweaters, hats, mitts, cowls, wraps & ponchos.
