The blend of all natural fibers in this yarn creates a luxurious but practical fabric that keeps you warm, but not overly so, on the cooler summer evenings or spring and autumn days. The wool gives the sweater a springy
memory and warmth while the cotton, silk and linen offer breathability and richness of color.
