Product Description
Feeling Good Stripe – the clue’s in the name. These soft skeins are an extension of our super fluffy and durable Feeling Good range, but our new limited edition, variegated shades have been dyed so they self-stripe magically as you stitch. Plus, this year-round yarn is sourced in the Andean Highlands, from suppliers that support Peru's remote alpaca communities.
Please note, the stripes will vary depending on your tension and size of project, so while all balls have been dyed the same each piece made will be truly unique.
WHAT’S IT LIKE TO KNIT WITH?
Light as a feather with a fluffy brushed appearance and nice texture, this relaxed yarn works with simple stitches or complex textures and it's really easy to knit with. And as it’s self-striping, it makes it super simple to do colour work too.
WHAT CAN I MAKE?
Feeling Good Yarn Stripe is soft enough to be close to the skin so we recommend roll neck sweaters, snoods and scarves, hats – lightweight pieces that will be very warm. You can also make any of your pre-existing Feeling Good Yarn patterns with this Feeling Good Yarn Stripe.
WORKS WELL WITH...
Garter Stitch, Moss Stitch, Stocking Stitch, Mock Fisherman's Rib
