Lady Heather

Please welcome Lady Heather. She is spun from 100% South African Fine roving dyed by Krista of Pigeon Roof Studios. South African Fine is derived from Merino. Therefore it has many of the characteristics of Merino. It's a wonderful fiber to spin with. The yarn is soft and lofty. It's 2 plied. The colors of this yarn consists of shades of violet/lavender/purple, berry, plum, pink & white. The colors are more mellow than Velvet Grape 1 or 2. A clarification on free/discounted shipping - it applies on order over 100.00. Thanks.
