JUST IN!! This new base from Kaos Yarn is a single spun yarn made of 100% Peruvian Highland Wool and has a balanced twist that is suitable for both knitting and crochet! The bright colors are dyed on the natural white wool and the neutral colors are dyed on a mix of natural white, brown and black fiber giving it a subtle melange look that is a much simpler process to the normal melange yarns.
The Peruvian Highland Wool comes from a natural crossbreed between Merino and Corriedale sheep, grazing in the Andes 2500-5000 m above sea level. Skinny Andean Wool is soft yarn with excellent stitch definition which can be used alone or paired with Kaos Yarn Organic Brushed Alpaca for worsted weight projects!
