This is a new yarn for 2010. This 3-ply yarn is 80% soft wool and 20% strong, shiny mohair contributed by the Shetland sheep and Angora goats here at Avillion Farm. I have had quite a good time dyeing it (left), but have left some in the natural state (right). The idea behind using a 3-ply was to give the finished yarn added roundness, strength and comfort.
This is beautiful yarn! Soft with a lovely sheen. Once I saw the skein with blues and greens, I knew it had to come home with me.
