The Farmer's Daughter Fibers "Oh Dang!" for Caitlin Hunter

NOTE: Please keep in mind that these are hand-dyed yarns and colors may vary from the photos. This is part of the beauty of hand-dyed yarns.

This base at FDF has got us saying, ‘Oh Dang!’ every time we touch it. Buttery soft, smooth to work with, and fascinating to knit, crochet, or weave up in your garments and accessories. Composed of Suri Alpaca and Silk, this fiber ends up filling out a bit heavier than a lace weight. A great alternative to those who are sensitive to Mohair but still want to get the feathery texture in your knits.
