Stolen Stitches Nua

WEIGHT DK CONTENT 60 % merino, 20% yak, 20% linen SKEIN 50g/140m HOOK 3.5-4mm RRP £8.50 Irish knitwear designer Carol Feller (www.stolenstitches.com) has teamed up with Jeni from Fyberspates and Andy of Chester Wools to produce this unique, bouncy DK. Merino, yak and linen is such an unusual fibre combination that we just had to try it for ourselves. Each of the fibres brings a different quality to the yarn – merino wool for squishiness, yak for soft silkiness and linen for durability. Nua comes in a sophisticated palette of 10 imaginatively-named shades.
