Forbes - 100% wool worsted weight feltable yarn cone
You asked for a feltable worsted weight wool, and we were happy to oblige. Forbes is our workshorse 100% wool yarn that is suprisingly soft. It can be used for sweaters, bags, and should be hand washed only, and dried flat.
It felts like a dream and knits to a classic worsted wool gauge. It can be substituted for any patterns calling for Cascade 220. 4 ply construction and 18-20 stitches per 10 cm on 4.5 mm - 5 mm needles (US sizes 7 -8). 2000 metres per kg, or 2200 yards per 2.2 pound cone.
* See samples of the yarn dyed and knitted up on our blog. We also have advice on dyeing techniques and results.
* New yarn from a pet and smoke free home.
* The picture is of a skein wound off the cone. You will receive yarn on the cone.
Order as many or as few as you want! Contact me for excellent prices for the whole cone. Wholesale queries welcome, as are requests for other yarns.
