Superwash merino and silk are blended together to create the ultimate drapey, luxurious yarn perfect for finer projects such as lace. Empire’s silk appears to glisten in the light, adding an extra depth to these already beautiful hand-dyed colorways.

Each skein is hand-dyed and may vary from skein to skein and colors may very on monitors. When using multiple skeins in one project it is recommended to introduce the new yarn several rows (rounds) before the end. Then knit and/or crochet every other row (round) with the two skeins. This is also a great way to knit with hand-dyed yarns if you have any pooling.
