Yaksha blends yak fibers with superwash merino and nylon. The dark Yak fiber affects the color of the raw yarn and lends depth to the colors achieved. Yaksha is creamy and pliable. It creates the most delicious fabric imaginable, but one that (thanks to the nylon) will hold up to repeat wearing and washing.

Also sold in bundles of mini skeins. Please adjust yardage and skein weight on individual stash entries. This is the same base yarn.
