Luxury CVM Bulky Handspun Textured Yarn.  AR0106TAU. 

Gray, fawn, beige and browns are from a CVM wool fleece.  All the colors are natural and from one sheep fleece. I washed the fleece by hand, combed and spun it into a fine single.  I plyed it with a white lace weight alpaca boucle yarn.  The result once I washed and set the twist was the CVM bloomed.  The plyed yarn turned into a light as air 5 bulky weight textured yarn.  This yarn is pure luxury soft of exotic fine wools.

• Wool:  CVM and Alpaca
• 8-9 WPI
• 5 Bulky Yarn weight
• 25 yard skein

Suitable for next to skin soft. Light as air and wonderful for scarves and shawls.  Will knit, crochet, and weave up nicely.  This is a delicate fine fiber that was spun for softness not abrasive durability.  It is weft yarn.

Recommended  size 17 knitting needle and size Q crochet hook for a more open flowing stitch and drape. 5 or 7.5 dpi is my preferred sett on a rigid heddle loom for weaving with this yarn.

The last photo is for reference of a poncho with long fringe that I crocheted with a Q hook (16 mm) in a single crochet stitch.  I love it.  It is light as air to wear and was pure joy to crochet. I used approx 350 yds.  300 yds made the poncho (plus size) with a little fringe but that extra 50 yds allowed for the full long fringe that I wanted.

Hand wash cold with (LIKE) similar colors.  Hang or lay flat to dry.
