Sylvan Fingering
per 100 g skein · 437 yd
From the maker: Camellia Fiber Company
Our most popular base and our softest yarn. Sylvan is warmer than wool, with a fluid, weighty drape and a subtle sheen that gives our colors a tonal depth. It's made for pieces you want to wrap up in: shawls, cowls, hats, and drapey cardigans. This 3-ply, fingering weight yarn is perfect for knitting heirloom-quality sweaters, delicate shawls and lightweight cardigans. Note: The cool gray color is natural (undyed) and the absolute perfect neutral.
