A Modern Luxury Staple

Super Silky is the yarn you reach for when you want your project to feel truly special. It is smooth enough to glide through the most complex lace patterns while maintaining the strength and practicality of superwash merino. Because the silk takes the dye differently than the wool, the colors have a unique luminosity that sets them apart from standard wool blends. It's an ideal choice for the knitter who values both process and a high-end finished result.
