Scrumptious is a blend of luxurious silk and merino wool from Fyberspates. It is extremely soft to the touch and has a delicious sheen, being perfect for those special knits. It shows up well on cable designs and there are a good set of solid colours to show off lace work. The yarn comes in a range of laceweight, 4-ply, double-knit/worsted, Aran and chunky.
This colour is part of a set of 6 that have been specially chosen by Ysolda Teague for Fyberspates and accompanies her new publication Saturday Treat which uses Fyberspates Scrumptious yarns in her colours.
