Lowther Lace in Charcoal (Dyelot 060325)

Hand dyed suri alpaca/silk laceweight yarn in colourway Charcoal - this colourway looks brown on this base because of the way the fluff takes the dye, but the silky core is more of a dark grey. 

Lowther Lace is a sumptuous blend of baby suri alpaca and mulberry silk. The alpaca fibre gives this yarn a wonderful cloud-like fuzzy halo and offers a great alternative to mohair. This yarn is ideal for using on its own in both knitting and crochet and can also be held double with other yarns to add a wonderful soft, fuzzy halo. It does not have great stitch definition due to the fuzziness of the fluff so complex lace patterns might get lost in it.

We recommend that you wash dark colours separately or wash a swatch before using dark and light colours together.

As with all hand dyed yarns, I would recommend that you alternate skeins if using more than one.
