Forbes - 100% wool worsted weight feltable yarn skein
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 (4") on 4.5 mm - 5 mm needles (US sizes 7 -8). 200 metres per skein, or 220 yards per skein.
* See samples of the yarn dyed and knitted up on our blog. We also have advice on dyeing techniques and results.
