It’s been a few weeks since we have had a fresh delivery from the west coast dyer Hazel Knits. I am so excited to see Wendee’s gorgeous color back in the store (and just in time for the holidays)! Each skein of Lively DK is 90% Merino and 10% nylon with the same tight twist as their popular Artisan Sock. It will work well as a heavy DK or light worsted, and its durability and wash-ability lends it nicely to baby items too.
Yarn details:
- 5-6 stitches per inch
- 275 yards
- $25 per skein
- Care: Handwash with mild, wool friendly detergent in tepid water. Lay flat to dry. May be machine washed on gentle cycle and machine dried at low temperature. For best results, turn garment inside out before laundering.
- Colors we received: Lipstick, Spooky Hue, Aventurine, Druid, Tastes Like Purple, Sedge, Rick’s Cognac, Splish Splash, Quill, Beachglass, Heirloom, Atmosphere, Lichen, Daphne, Malachite, Poppy, White Winged Dove, Silhouette
