MATERIALS
Purl Soho’s Quartz, 65% merino wool, 35% suri alpaca. Each skein is 420 yards/ 100 grams.

Striped Version

  • Main Color (MC): 1 skein; approximately 114 (130) yards required. We used Ash Gray.
  • Contrast Color (CC): 1 skein; approximately 100 (122) yards required. We used Hydrangea Blossom.

Colorblock Version

  • Main Color (MC): 1 skein; approximately 130 (151) yards required. We used Blue Jeans.
  • Contrast Color (CC): 1 skein; approximately 80 (93) yards required. We used Aquamarine Blue.

NOTE: This is enough yarn to make 3 pairs of hand warmers in either size or style (for the Large size of the Colorblock version, just reverse the colors for the last pair), and one skein is enough to make a solid pair!
