Product Description
Brackenvale 8ply has a unique chainette binder with an airblown wool construction which gives the yarn stability and a lovely warm halo.  100% wool that is perfect for a soft flecked, slightly felted look, (without the felted feel ! ). It knits well on both 4mm and 5mm needles.Â
Also can be knitted double (2 strands together) on 9mm needles for a quick warm jumper!
At 170metres this yarn has 70metres more per 50gram ball than a standard weight 8ply/DK, a little will go a long way making for a very economical knitted or crocheted project.
