On the Seventh Day of Christmas Ancient Arts had for me:
Merino Silk DK
Day Seven takes us on a nostalgic trip back in time to the very first custom yarn ever created by Ancient Arts! We thought this yarn was long gone but a box popped up at just the perfect moment to create a seasonal treat with this very special yarn!
75% SW Merino / 25% Tussah Silk DK is a decadent yarn with gorgeous sheen (it almost sparkles!) and has wonderful drape. It’s perfect for garments like sweaters and accessories like hats, cowls, and shawls. Thanks to the stronger merino in this yarn, it wears incredibly well and will last for years. The tussah silk makes this yarn very stitch friendly – it is easy to tension, and the amazing silk glitter keeps it fun!
We’ve dyed it in three seasonal colours:
Mistletoe (dark green) – cozy up to someone special with this colourway!
Silver Bells (silver) – one of our all time most popular Holiday colours!
Holly and the Ivy (green with red) – this colourway will pool and is super fun for both knit and crochet accessories!
