Mary is a heavy double-knit/worsted weight yarn, made from a blend of 50% Peruvian highland wool and 50% Peruvian superfine alpaca.
The wool comes from Corridale-Merino crossbred sheep that live in the Peruvian highlands. The alpaca yarn is a superfine quality. The blend of highland wool and alpaca produces a yarn that is luxuriously soft to the touch.
These three, limited edition, colours have been hand dyed by RiverKnits.
