Chaski
Step into spring in the Andes with our beautiful new blend of pima cotton and superwash merino wool. ‘Chaski’ is was a very important messenger in Inca society, they would often run hundreds of miles on the vast Incan empire. We honour their legacy with Amano’s first sock weight yarn.

This blend has been specially developed using the softest pima cotton, which is springy and structured, mixed with superwash merino wool. Easy knit and easy care, meaning it can be washed in the machine over and over without losing its softness. Perfect for all your lace knit creations and developed in twelve spring shades.
