On the search for a garment quality yarn we found this beautiful yarn base from our UK Supplier. The Yak gives the undyed base a grey tone which means it takes colours in a different way to cream bases.

In sweaters this yarn has beautiful stitch definition which makes it perfect for not only stocking stitch but also cables and lace motifs. The nylon adds strength which means this yarn can also be used for light wear socks.
