The colors: Our supersaturated colors, available in all the yarns, come from the world’s finest dye and will hold through repeated washings. The dyeing techniques produce lively yarn that defies pooling.

The yarn: Colorful Yarn is spun in Eastern Pennsylvania in a tight ply, making it squishy and springy yet durable and excellent for patterns requiring stitch definition. Our superwash fingering weight, 100 percent merino, is fingering-weight yarn on the heavy side, 410 yards to 120 grams. You’ll get 8 to 6.5 stitches per inch on #1 to #3 needles. Our superwash worsted weight merino knits up at 5 stitches to the inch on #7 needles at 250 yards and 100 grams. Silk & Silver is a luxurious fingering weight of 63 percent superwash merino, 20 percent silk, 15 percent nylon and 2 percent sterling silver. Durable, washable, soft and sparkly - what more could you want. Use it for socks, scarves and highlights on sweaters. It comes in 50-gram, 200-yard skeins and knits up like the fingering.
