This blend of superwash merino with nylon takes dye perfectly for vivid semi-solids as well as artistic colorplay.
It is a classic yarn made to the highest specification and produced for both handle and durability. It is ideal for socks and other hardwear garments.

Although the skeins come from the same dye bath, they can vary. If working with two or more skeins I recommend alternating strands to obtain a uniform fabric.

Care:
Even though this yarn is super wash I recommend a cool hand wash in a mild detergent. Although every effort is made to exhaust the dye bath of color you may find a little color bleed on the first wash.
