Axis is a special collaboration between Fyberspates & knit designer Lily Kate Makes. Known for her sweater designs, Lily Kate has designed a superb worsted weight garment yarn. This soft, plump worsted weight yarn has wonderful stitch definition for textured stitches & cables. The yarn is spun from 20.5, non-superwash Merino wool with a touch of undyed Suri alpaca. This gives the yarn a lovely hand & the perfect amount of drape. The softly heathered colorways are flattering to wear. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans & accessories such as hats, cowls & mittens.
