Henry's Attic Silk & Ivory
50% Silk, 50% Merino Wool
147g=650yd
Use with US 3-6 needles
Bought at: Shuttles, Needles, and Hooks in Cary, NC
My rating: 4/5
This comes in a natural undyed state, and has a beautiful drape. I would give it 5/5 except that it knots and sticks to itself easily, felts easily, and sheds a bit. It also requires some time when dying (I used MX dyes, and let the yarn sit ~1 hour, and I needed to redye it to get the intense colors I was looking for. I love that it is soft though!
Note: This yarn has been discontinued, and is now known as Henry's Attic Carrera.
Pattern used in: Clapotis (Color Natural, Dyed with MX dyes, US8 needles)
