Description
The Corrie Sock is a great all around fingering weight yarn. It has the strength to use for socks. It has wonderful drape when knit with larger needles. It is 75% SW Corriedale wool and 25% nylon. Each skein has 430 yards.
The Chinook Sock adds elegance to your knitting. It is a fingering weight yarn with 413 yards per skein. It is comprised of 80% SW Merino, 10% Cashemere and 10% nylon.
Sparkly is a fingering weight yarn made from 92% SW Merino and 8% Lurex (the sparkly part). I love that the lurex is well plied. It doesn’t worm out of the yarn. Each skein is 400 yards.
These colorways were developed in Spring of 2020. Corona was inspired by the electron microscopic image of the virus. Antibody reflects the knowledge that your antibodies fight the virus, so the colorway is the complementary colors of the virus. And vaccine was developed because most vaccines come from parts of the original virus, so these colors are deeper, richer colors.
These skeins are dyed to order, that is why the inventory says back order. I dye your order within one business day of receiving your order.

Beautiful and soft yarn! In a wild year, it’s fun to have yarn named carona that looks just like what we see on TV. I love how vaccine has the color wheel complimentary colors to the virus skein. Yarn comes so fast too!
