Versatile, this 75% BFL and 25% nylon yarn allows a beautiful stitch definition. It is perfect for jacquard! Solid, it can be used for socks and other accessories as well as for clothing. Hand-dyed wool in my maurecourtois workshop (Yvelines, France).

Even if the superwash treatment allows machine washing on the wool program, I always recommend hand washing and drying flat to best preserve your works.
