VIP by Lana Gato

This scrumptuous 80% extrafine merino/20% cashmere makes a wonderful weight for a lightweight garment and is also a great choice for intricate colorwork mittens a la Latvian, Estonian, Sweedish, Lithuanian, etc traditions!

Each 50 gm ball has 218 yards and it's recommended knit at 7-8 sts/inch on a US 1-3 needle.

The merino gives it lots of lovely memory/elasticity which cashmere lacks, but because it is "extrafine" merino and therefore  a finer micron count than regular merino, it does't detract from the softness of the cashmere! 

Price:  $15.99/ball
