Artesia (Berroco)

Our new chunky weight yarn is a blend of alpaca, kid mohair and nylon. Create accessories and garments that are soft, fuzzy, and light with this unique hand dyed yarn. Use by itself or held together with one of our classic workhorse yarns.  Made in Italy

The yarn is hand dyed and hanks may vary – we recommend alternating hanks every two rows while knitting.
