Embers To Ashes

Embers To Ashes is spun from roving dyed by Susie of Perchance To Spin. It is 100% superwash Blueface Leicester or BFL. It has a sheen to it and that is the nature of BFL fiber. The yarn is very soft and lofty. It's 2 plied. The color of the yarn consists of white/natural/ecru, light/dark gray & orange. This yarn will be great for shawl, hats, socks, scarves or mittens.
