For featherweight shawls and accessories that you can wear in all seasons, we are excited to welcome JaggerSpun Zephyr lace weight yarn to the shop! This yarn is equal parts Merino Wool and Tussah Silk, and made in the USA. This unique combination of natural fibers provides a yarn that is lightweight and lustrous.
Because Wool and Silk accept dyes differently, the fabric made from this yarn may have a slightly “tweedy” look in some shades. We have 17 gorgeous shades in the shop now to choose from!
JaggerSpun yarns are produced in Maine, and the Jagger name has been synonymous with high-quality worsted spun yarn since the 1880s. Zephyr is sure to inspire your lace weight stitching, whether it be for gorgeous lace shawls, paired with mohair in garments, or weaving! We also have a great selection of Miyuki beads in 6/0 and 8/0 sizes to pair with it.
