Beyul
Baby Yak • Silk • ethically sourced superwash Merinoand
{See photos tagged #beyulyarn on Instagram}
BEYUL combines the best of 3 fibres – the gentle halo of high quality Yak down, a subtle shimmer from silk, and the bouncy goodness of the softest superwash Merino. This blend is truly a dyer’s dream, taking dye with an intoxicating richness that takes your breath away.
Care tip: Some of the loose, short fibres of the yak might work themselves free when you first wear your project, but once you shave these off with sweater shaver, they will be gone forever and your Beyul will look clean as new for years!
Yak Faks
A single Yak produces a mere 100g of down a year…one average skein of fingering weight yarn, making it a rare and precious fibre. Hand-combed or plucked, this short fibre sits between the most luxurious fine Cashmere and softest baby Camel in micron thickness and has a similar butter-soft handle and gloriously gentle halo… however - it has the added benefit of pilling less than either fibre.
Yak is durable, breathable, lightweight and its incredible thermal properties keeps you cool in summer and warm in winter.
