Arietta's Whisper: Delicate Lace, Undeniable Charm.
Alright, buckle up buttercup, 'cause we're about to unleash a tidal wave of awesome. This ain't just a thing, it's a vibe. It's that little slice of heaven you didn't know you needed, a conversation starter, a mood lifter, a guaranteed head-turner. Imagine this… you, holding this masterpiece, radiating pure, unadulterated cool. It's the missing puzzle piece in your life, the secret ingredient to your success, the ultimate expression of YOU. Don't just buy it, *own* it. Get it now, before your future self kicks your present self for missing out. You know you want to. Do it.
We were very sad to learn last fall that the mill where this yarn is spun was closing. We managed to purchase 4 kilos of yarn before they closed, but this spring we'll be dyeing our last batch of Arietta.
Pre-orders for this yarn are now closed, and all pre-ordered yarn will be shipped by May 15. Any yarn that is still available after pre-orders have been filled will be listed here later this spring.
One of our most luxurious yarns, Arietta is a light and airy lace weight wool and silk blend. Its subtle colour variation adds texture and depth to lace knitting, and the generous yardage makes it possible to knit a scarf with just 50g of yarn, or a shawl or stole with 100g.
We recommend using a swift when winding this yarn. If you don't have access to one, we can wind your yarn into cakes before shipping for a small fee.
