This past weekend we were delighted to welcome mYak yarns to space. Working directly with herders across the Tibetan Plateau, mYak brings sustainable yak fiber to the mills of Italy, resulting in luxuriously soft yarn with a wonderful social mission. We loved this yarn so much, we couldn’t wait to knit up the Striped Handwarmers in Baby Yak Medium! This fun project makes the perfect gift for anyone on your list. This project is small and approachable for all levels of knitters, making it the ideal gift. The stripes let you play with fun color combinations and the fun textured stitches keeps it interesting while you knit. Each of us at the shop has someone on their gift list in mind for a pair of these! With all of the lovely colors available, the possibilities are endless.
