Weight: Fingering Weight
Gauge: 7 - 8 sts = 1" on #1 - 3 needles (2.25mm-3.25mm)
Amount: 231 yards/50 gram ball
Care: Hand Wash/Dry Flat
Our collection of fingering weight wool yarn designed especially for Fair Isle and color work covers the entire range of the gradated color wheel with supporting neutrals and a full compliment of heathers to make your color work planning easier. Well, maybe not easier, since it's so hard to stop adding more and more colors to your selection! Don't forget to include one or two bright colors in your mix to give your design some "pop", and try combining heathers and solids together for a sophisticated interplay of colors. Palette is also excellent for very durable socks. Recommended for felting.
Since I’ve discovered the joys of colorwork knitting, Palette has become my go-to yarn. It is softer than traditional colorwork wool, making it perfect for my itch-sensitive skin, but it’s still toothy enough to making stranding and steeking a breeze. Last fall I used it to make my first ever Fair Isle sweater, and this fall I’m hatching plans for lots of intricate two-color mittens.

Palette is sturdy stuff. Angela snagged her favorite Palette fingerless gloves when she was building a back porch, but she managed to fix them.
