Content: 100% Peruvian Highland Wool
Weight: Bulky Weight
Gauge: 3 - 3.75 sts = 1" on #10 - 11 needles (6.0mm-8.0mm)
Amount: 137 yards/100 gram hank
Care: Hand Wash/Dry Flat
Wool of the Andes Bulky is a classic wool yarn spun and plied carefully to achieve a wonderfully balanced twist. A sturdy yet soft yarn that we love using to quickly knit up simple, comfortable sweaters. It is an excellent yarn for felting. The hand-dyed colors have short repeats so the color changes frequently, producing a marbled effect when knitted. Wool of the Andes Bulky is soft and will not pill like Merino, perfect for slippers, hats, sturdy bags and purses, and warm sweaters and jackets for outdoor wear.

“Knit Picks- great yarn; great prices. I used Wool of the Andes for my Enchanted Forest Fingerless gloves and it is strong, the colors are vibrant, and the cost was low. I used 3 skeins for two gloves, and it cost me $2.19 per skein plus shipping- under $10!” www.zoescheffy.blogspot.com, February 2009
