100 Natural Merino Wool Plaited Cable by OldNewBorrowedPurple

Product Description:

This is a totally unique, one of a kind scarf!

The Merino sheep are farmed near Plettenberg Bay in South Africa. A husband and wife team shear; spin and dye the wool from these sheep. (This skein is undyed) They sell the wool from a small craft centre near in Plettenberg Bay.

I have knitted this scarf with 8mm needles with a random plaited cable running through the middle. It is twisted and the ends sewn together to create the infinity scarf.

The scarf is beautifully soft and warm to the touch. Being hand spun this single ply yarn is uneven, which gives extra character to the finish.
