Kathmandu Aran

A merino, silk, cashmere blend that is a chocolate brown ever so slightly on the grey edge, with lighter spots where the silk took the dye differently and barely discernible black flecks, a truly woodsy personality.  Kathmandu Yarn is a perfect worsted weight and knits to approximately 4.5 sts per inch on a US#8 (5mm) needle.  It is an unusually soft and smooth tweed blend in a made in Italy. This luxurious merino, silk and cashmere fiber gives you a truly wonderful finished project.

Easy to knit or crochet.   Hats, scarves or garments are ideal for this yarn.  Reminiscent of home spun yarns or a rustic tweed with its' some what nubby textured.  Some colors have a tweed color added in.  The colors are deeply saturated shades.  Can't say too much about this truly classic and wonderful yarn.
