Keld Aran
Hand dyed 90% superwash merino, 10% linen Aran Yarn
Available in four gorgeous colours
A beautiful soft yarn with a rustic appearance, suitable for a wide range of knitting and crochet projects. It is next-to-skin soft as you might imagine from the merino; and the linen content adds a gorgeous visual interest. In darker colourways it is more visible as white-ish fibres which are spun in but also are present on the surface. The linen can't be felt so it doesn't take anything away from the softness of the wool. As well as being soft and fairly drapey, this yarn is quite sturdy too - knitted or crocheted at a medium to tighter gauge it has good structure. The stitch definition is great, and this yarn is an absolute joy to both work with and wear.
