Description

What is included?

1 skein of Parfait Worsted
A 3-ply worsted-weight Rambouillet yarn, produced entirely on one family ranch in the western range. Each ply is a different natural gray-brown shadedark, medium, and lightcreating a beautiful barber-pole effect that knits into a soft, speckled, flannel-like fabric.

Note: These skeins are unwashed. The wool is scoured before processing, but the yarn is not washed after spinning, so it may contain a bit of spinning oil or mill dust. After a warm, soapy soak, the yarn blooms beautifully. Be sure to wash swatches and finished fabric before checking gauge.
(If you need a wool wash, we have several great options!)
