Another new yarn for Spring 2010 - OUTBACK LACE is a real workhorse. Like all Merino yarn it has strength, softness and in particular "wicking" and anti-bacterial properties allowing it to be worn next to the skin without the wearer becoming too hot or the yarn being too itchy. Outback LACE however has one trick up its sleeve - ITS MACHINE WASHABLE ON A WOOL CYCLE! (but honestly would you want to?)

Rooster™ Almerino DK yarn is made from a mix of 50% Alpaca and 50% Merino Yarn. It is spun in such a way to give a "corded" effect.
