$33.00

CANCER - a mottled cranberry shade! One of our zodiac yarns.

YARN - ALPACA SILK DK WEIGHT - 50% Baby Alpaca, 50% Mulberry Silk

A heavenly, dreamy yarn that is ultra-soft, with a shimmering glow from the silk. Hand-dyed in radiant, dazzling shades! Wonderful for cozy, next-to-skin items like shawls, scarves, cowls, sweaters, hats, mittens and other accessories and garments.

•4-ply: This results in a long-wearing yarn that'll last for years to come.
•DK Weight (stands for Double Knitting): This weight of yarn is thinner than worsted weight and thicker than sport weight. It's incredibly versatile and can be knitted or crocheted into an endless number of wonderful items.
•Yardage: 210 m / 230 yd
•Weight: 100 g / 3.5 oz
•Recommended Knitting Needle Size: US 5-8 (3.75mm - 5.00 mm)
•Crochet Hook Size D-H (3.25 mm - 5.00 mm)

Note: Each skein is a hand-created, unique work of art and no two skeins will be identical, even within the same dye lot. If working with more than one skein in a project, it is best to alternate skeins every other row. Despite every effort to accurately depict our product colors, actual shades may vary due to differences in monitor settings.

Cancer Alpaca Silk DK + Stitch Markers
5 Stars

I have yet to be disappointed with the yarn from Expression Fiber Arts. This DK yarn is very soft and has a light sheen , which adds depth to the colors. The Cancer colorway ranges from a very pale pink to a deep cranberry. I usually favor cool tones, but when I saw this yarn, I could not resist adding to my collection and working it up into the perfect garment - - perhaps a shawl or better yet a boho style vest.
