Yarn bases

Here I'll collect the details of all the yarn bases I carry (or have carried and might come back someday) in the Etsy shop!

Caledonian in Quartz

First, there is the Caledonian base. This contains 75% merino superwash and 25% nylon and has 425 meters per 100 gram. It's durable, but also very soft! Which makes it perfect for much more than just socks, basically anything you can think of. Scarfs, shawls, hats, cardi’s, sweaters...

Himalayan in Jasper

Next, there is my Himalayan base. It contains 60% merino superwash, 20% silk and 20% yak. The fingering weight has 366 meters per 100 gram. I will also carry the DK weight this autumn :D. It's luxuriously soft, perfect a special project. How about a sweater out of this?

Kibaran in Orthoclase

The Kibaran lace is truly special and I have a soft spot for this one... I promise you, this is the SOFTEST yarn you have ever cuddled! It is 50% baby camel and 50% silk and has 800 meters per 100 gram. That lace project that you have always wanted to make but never got round to? This is the perfect yarn for it ;)

I will also have some naturally dyed skeins of Alpine. These are 100% merino superwash and super soft. There is 400 meter per 100 gram. This may not be hard wearing enough for socks, but it's perfect for everything else you can think of.
