100% pure New Zealand Corriedale yarn is a semi worsted yarn especially designed for softness and strength. The texture is lofty and top quality fibres have been chosen to give the yarn that special sheen associated with world class knitwear. The yarn will not pill so that your knitwear will stay looking great for a long time. However, this yarn will shrink for the current craft of knit-to-felt projects. Needle size is 4 - 4.5mm with a tension of 20 stitches and 26 rows to 10cm over stocking stitch. Ball of 100g. Buy 500g of the same colour and save money. This yarn is also great for use in weaving. For FREE knitting patterns using this yarn see www.ashford.co.nz/yarns/yarns-frameset.htm Yarn shade card available at £3.25 which will be deducted from your first Tekapo yarn order of 500g or more.
A selection of natural undyed yarns in skeins ready for use as they are or "itching" to be dyed. Some yarns have been superwashed to reduce the risk of shirkage - therefore no use in knit-to-felt projects.
