China Silk!

Pure Chinese Silk, so Lustrous it glows,  tremendously lightweight and smooth. 
This fabulous yarn is spun in China in a 5/2 gauge.  It is a 2ply yarn, hence the "2" in 5/2, with the five being a measure of the thickness of the ply.  The end result is a yarn that is approximately the same thickness as a DK cotton yarn.

Silk yarn has many great qualities, but be aware that pure silk has almost no elasticity, and will stretch when wet.  If you choose the right projects for pure silk yarns, you will be very pleased.  Try this yarn on larger needles for a lacy shawl, scarf or even a lace overblouse with little shaping.  Nothing is more elegant for a bridal ensemble.


Another Special
Pure Merino
OK, we're going to try this particular item again, since the weather is a little cooler and we've lowered the price a bit more.

This is a beautiful toasted almond color.  This color is really very lovely, the only reason we think it's discontinued is that it is too similar to the Resin color (just a little lighter than Resin).

Anyway, we have way too much of this in stock, so it's your windfall!
Cotton Tail.You won't believe how soft this wonderful new yarn can be until you feel it!  A great value, this yarn has luxury quality at a moderate price.
