Wonderful shimmery microfibre mixed with wool velvety chenille from Meunch Yarns.
It has a wool core so that it doesn't fray or split. We reccomend after knitting with it that you put it in the washer/spin dryer on a warm wash. You'll just be shrinking the wool core in the centre and you can pin it back into place. This improves the drape dramatically. and gives it a look of vintage velvet. Top Tip: If you wash in the machine you MUST put knitted piece in the dryer. This will soften it up!
Try this yarn for an elegant wrap (there's a great pattern for it in 'Wrap Style') or skinny evening scarf. We use it for Leigh Radford's funky Evening Bag in Loop's 'Pretty Knits'.
