Hand dyed in Turkiye by local artisans, each skein of Olio is a beautifully complex combination of rich colors. The single-ply yarn is spun with 100% superwash Merino wool giving it a lovely softness with ease of care. A versatile gauge, the DK/ light worsted weight yarn is perfect for winter accessories such as hats, mitts, cowls & scarves. The yarn handles textured stitches beautifully, but even simple stitch patterns shine as the yarn reveals a fun variegation.
