Isager Mulberry Silk Navy

Description

Located on a small farm in Tversted, a lovely seaside village located on the northern tip of Denmark, Isager has been designing timeless patterns & yarns since 1977.

Enjoy knitting with the incredible feel of 100% silk. Lightweight, breathable & naturally thermoregulating; this fiber is incredible for all season garments. Incredibly soft & strong, Mulberry Silk is ideal for polished shawls, wraps, scarves, short sleeve tops & sweaters.

The plied, lace weight yarn has a beautiful sheen & stitch definition. Hold single-stranded for light, airy wraps or hold double for a more substantial fabric. Mulberry Silk may also be used held together with your favorite yarn to add a bit of drape & sheen. It is a lovely alternative to silk/ mohair blends.
