Silky Fluff - Sample skein
Silky Fluff
70% Grade A Mulberry Silk 30% Fine Merino
1ply yarn Brushed Construction
219 yds/50g skein, Sample Skein
Gauge on 4mm/US6: 19 sts and 28 rows for 10cm/4”
WPI is 15
Silky Fluff is a brushed version of our silk Boucle. It has a very soft muted fluff that knits up to be almost chenille-like in texture. For the swatch below I used 4mm needles but smaller sizes would also work well. The fabric has a soft drapey texture. This would work well for Accessories and sweaters. The yarn takes the dye well, speckles will be soft and muted on this yarn due to the construction, I’ve speckled this sample and it turned out to be really delicate, it's lovely.
The strands in the yarn in the hank once dyed do stick together, they are easy to separate and do not affect the knitting, but this is part of the yarn construction and not a problem. The yarn can be rewound if the presentation isn’t to your liking.
