Fair Lady
A superhigh quality 4-plied yarn that excells in its wearing properties with a sophisticated appearance. Its composition of extrafine merino, silk and ramie gives it a slight satin shine, strength and adding its looks to the rich but soft natural color palette. A topquality sock yarn without nylon added.
It is scrumptiously soft to handle, and can easily be worn next to the skin, feeling light to the touch and with excellent breathing capacities due to the ramie. The knit fabric it has a wonderful drape, yet possessing a clear stich definition.
An extremely versatile yarn for any project ranging from cables&lace, textured patterning, shawls, cardigans, tops and jumpers. Great for the best-loved socks you will wear for ever and never want to take off except for a handwash.
The socks in the image are the "Goudenregen Socks", a pattern by Ans Tulner of the HISTorical team, who researches Dutch historical patterns, kindly and expertly knit by Ditte.
