Isager Soft Fine
New from Isager! This yarn is super beautiful and a dream to knit with.
Soft Fine is a beautiful alternative to mohair and unbelievably soft.
This luxurious yarn contains a core of silk, with a loop of alpaca and yak for a fluffy bouclé effect. While different in production and fibre content from Isager Soft, we find that both yarns have a similar texture. ISAGER SOFT FINE's wool is sourced from yaks, giving it rich, deep colours similar to the S-colours made from white and black wool. This yarn's softness rivals that of Silk Mohair, and Isager's team affectionately call it 'Isager's cashmere'. Knitting with this yarn is a truly unique experience, especially when using just one strand.
This yarn is versatile and incredibly flexible, with a fluffy and soft texture that gives it a substantial feel, even when knit with one strand on a larger needle..
- The yarns with the brown labels are undyed / natural colours
- The yarns with the black labels are dyed
We think this yarn makes a wonderful choice for the Susan's Cardigan and The Beautiful Smock Sweater from Camarose
Can also be used as a single strand for a light but warm garment or held together with another yarn.
There is also a lovely children's shirt, Little Kirsten Shirt, designed by Helga Isager for the new Little Isager Archives Collection
