Apart from the gorgeous colour, it’s the beautiful sheen of this merino and silk mix lace yarn that first catches the eye. A generous 1,200m of yarn per hank means that one skein is sufficient for most shawl patterns. Helen Lockhart of Ripples Crafts dyes all of the yarn herself, in the northwest Highlands of Scotland. Visit Helen’s site to see which gorgeous colours are currently available.
