A most lovely yarn unique to Miss Babs, we here present Yet.
As Miss Babs puts it: "This is a Not Quite lace-weight yarn made of 65% Merino Wool and 35% Tussah Silk. Lace weight yarns typically have 5000 or more yards per pound. This yarn has approximately 3200 yards per pound (ypp). This little bit of extra heaviness makes it a great choice for folks new to lace knitting, and still is a wonderful choice for those well-versed in lace knitting.
"The joy of this yarn is that it not only knits up nicely, it becomes more wonderful as it is worn."
(Interestingly, Susannah IC and Knitty.com used "Yet" in the original Annis pattern in the 2010 Spring/Summer Surprise.)
*****
Each skein is approximately 400 yards and 2.3 ounces. Now to be honest, most shawls and scarves and even shawlettes need more than 400 yards (there are some exceptions, of course, and they are wonderful). The nicest thing is that the price is very good on this yarn and two skeins will take you quite far. So keep this in mind as you wander amongst patterns to find the perfect design (and if you'd like some help in your search, we're just an email away).
On this page we are showing two colors which work nicely together, should you wish to use them both in one garment. The Light Clematis is the almost solid and its hues can be found again in the variegated Betony .
Light Clematis is basically a soft and delicate lilac, with some very subtle variations of tone.
Betony includes the light lilac and also some pinks and some deeper violets and well as some red-violets. A beautiful mix of hues.
Pick one or pick both. Use the drop-down menu to make your choice.
