Madelinetosh - Pashmina
Pure Luxury. We also have our exclusive colour 'London Cosmopolitan' and 'Olivia' is back for us!
Madelinetosh Pashmina is a superb 3-ply yarn made up of 75% superwash merino wool, 15% silk and 10% cashmere, a similar fibre blend to the infamous woven pashmina scarves.
This machine washable yarn is hand-dyed in small dye lots and knits up to create a soft fabric with great drape. Absolutely gorgeous!
Please note that as this is a hand-dyed yarn, each skein is unique. We recommend striping alternate skeins when using more than one in order to achieve a more natural gradation.
One skein enough for pair of gloves, mittens and a small (lace) wrap or scarf. 4ply / Sportweight yarn but can be used as DK or for lace knitting as well depending on pattern and needle size used.
We also have beautiful Tiny Tassel kits made up using Pashmina with Koigu KPPPM for the tassels here.
