As you knit or crochet, these contrasting sections create rhythmic, shifting stripes and unexpected color patterns, making every project uniquely yours. Made from 80% Extrafine Superwash Merino and 20% Nylon, Carmen offers the softness and warmth of fine merino with the added durability of nylon. Its smooth 4-ply construction provides excellent stitch definition while making it a wonderful choice for socks, shawls, lightweight sweaters, hats, mitts, and other accessories. Carmen is especially fun for projects where you can play with the natural color changes. Depending on your gauge, stitch pattern, and how you work with the color transitions, the yarn can create beautiful self-patterning effects or be deliberately "engineered" to highlight specific sections of color. Each 100g skein provides approximately 440 yards (400 meters), giving you plenty of yardage for a wide range of fingering-weight projects.
