Handspun Chunky Tasmanian Merino Yarn in Purple Bling

Hand Spun Tasmanian Merino wool yarn in strong variegated shade of pink/purple, spun thick and thin and then double plied with gold lace weight thread.

This purple may show as more purple than pink on some screens. It has strong pink undertones.

This one was spun from one of my carded merino wool batts with added Mulberry silk

This purple stunner is a very textured yarn and would add plenty of bling to any project. I often find my lovely customers will use these yarns in their weaving or macrame.

Recommended Usage

This yarn is chunky and will knit into an easy chunky neck wrap, cowl or beanie. Use some larger than usual needles for these yarns and combine the yarn with other yarns found here to make up the yardage required. I usually encourage my lovely knitters to think outside the square and let the yarn tell the story when working with these. Of course this yarn will felt and you can use it as detailing for wet felting.

Needle sizes will vary depending on what you are going to knit or weave with these yarns.
