Soft, strong, and washable, this 4-ply worsted yarn is our workhorse! The plies help resist pilling and washability makes it fantastic for frequently-worn garments, housewares, and children and baby clothes. And like all our yarns, it's super soft and great for next-to-the-skin wear! Spun from our premium superwash merino, it comes in an array of watercolor-multi, semi-solid, and variegated colorways. Great for: Accessories, garments, baby and kids items, housewares, toys, cables, textured stitches, colorwork. Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. In the tagged (*) colors, the skeins may vary one from the other even within the same bag. To ensure random color distribution, work from two balls of yarn at once, alternating a few rows from each ball. Matisse Blue is an amazing rich, bright almost denim blue right out of a Matisse painting!
